How to Create Local Users or Groups

  • Last updated on

The Barracuda SecureEdge Manager allows administrators to create local users and groups via the Identity Management. A local user can be added to the Access > Enrolled Users page even when no directory exists. To add an enrolled user, you must configure an identity provider, such as Email. With SecureEdge Identity Management, you can do the following:

  • You can add a local user/group without an existing user directory.

  • You can add a local user without a group association, which means you need to provide only a name and an email address. However, if you want to associate a local user to a specific local group, you must first create this local group.

  • A local user is created as a member of a local group. On the Users page, you can see the group association of a specific user.

  • On the Groups page, all enrolled group members are displayed.

  • You can edit or remove an existing local user or group.
