Adding User Accounts

Use the Users tool in the Security Access Manager workbench to add a user account to the
MDM Hub
.
  1. Start the Users tool.
  2. Acquire a write lock.
  3. Click the
    Users
     tab.
  4. Click the
    Add user
     button.
    The Users tool displays the
    Add User
     dialog box.
  5. Enter a first, middle, and last name for the user.
  6. Enter a user name for the user.
    User names are case-insensitive and are stored as lowercase characters.
  7. Enter a valid email address for the user. The MDM Hub sends the password for this user account to this email address.
  8. Enter the default database for the user. This is the database that is selected by default when the user logs in to
    Hub Console
    .
  9. If the user account is for an application, select the
    Application user
     check box.
    Application users are used for certificate-based authentication of requests that are generated by a trusted application on behalf of the user.
  10. Enter and verify a password for the user.
  11. Choose the type of authentication.
    • Select the
      Use external authentication
       check box if your
      MDM Hub
       implementation uses authentication through a third-party security provider.
    • Clear the
      Use external authentication
       check box if you want to use the internal authentication in the
      MDM Hub
      .
  12. Browse for a public certificate for the user. This certificate can be used by the MDM Hub for authentication of user requests.
    If the user account is for an application user, you must select a certificate.
  13. Click
    OK
    .
    The Users tool adds the new user to the list of users on the
    Users
     tab.
