Managing User Databases
An on-board user database contains all the user accounts and access rights
assigned in an appliance. You can save this database to a client-based file and
use it to configure users on other appliances by restoring the user account file
to the new appliance.
NOTE: The user account fi le is encrypted and you will be prompted to create a password when
you save the fi le. You will need to enter this password when you write the fi le to a new unit.
