The local authentication object allows an administrator to manage SBC Core user authorizations by assigning a user to one of the predefined groups.

For user authentication and group details, refer to Managing SBC Core Users and Accounts.

When a new user is created, the system generates a password for that account. The new user should change the default password after initial login.

Creating a user ID named "sonusadmin" via CLI is not allowed. If "sonusadmin" exists when upgrading to this release, it will automatically be removed.

For CLI details regarding changing passwords, refer to change-password page.

You cannot delete a default user group.
