Article Summary

End users are registered with the CTERA Portal and have access to the End User Portal. Each user is represented in the CTERA Portal by a user account.
Users and groups of users should be added directly in the portal or by using directory services, such as Active Directory. You can attach a directory service and fetch users and groups from the directory service. For information about using a directory service, see Using Directory Services For the Users.

Viewing Users

To view all users in the portal:

  1. Select Users > Users in the navigation pane.
    The USERS page opens, displaying the users for the portal.
