from the user agreement page. trial-users are free guest accounts that are created with the Free
Time function.
Pre-Subscriber Accounts
Use the pre-subscriber account to test the Internet connection between the UAG and the ISP. The
UAG does not impose time limitations or charges on this account. Thus, anyone who logs in with
this account is able to gain Internet access for free.
User Groups
User groups may consist of user accounts or other user groups. Use user groups when you want to
create the same rule for several user accounts, instead of creating separate rules for each one.
Note: You cannot put access users and admin users in the same user group.
Note: You cannot put the default admin account into any user group.
The sequence of members in a user group is not important.
User Awareness
By default, users do not have to log into the UAG to use the network services it provides. The UAG
automatically routes packets for everyone. If you want to restrict network services that certain
users can use via the UAG, you can require them to log in to the UAG first. The UAG is then ‘aware’
of the user who is logged in and you can create ‘user-aware policies’ that define what services they
can use. See
for a user-aware login example.
