Adding a Remote User Manually

Running a remote update can use one of your networking ports for quite some time. If you want to add a remote user immediately but do not want to run a remote update, you can add that user manually.

 

To add a remote user manually:

1. Start at the Administration main menu and select:

Global Administration
     Messaging Administration

The system displays the SSH User Authentication dialog box. Enter your login, for example, sa or vm, in the User name field and your password in the Password field. Click Login. The system then displays the AUDIX Command Prompt screen.

2. Enter add remote-subscriber machine_name at the enter command: prompt, where machine_name is the name of the remote machine on which the remote user is administered.
    

Tip: To see a list of remote systems, use the list machines command as described in Viewing a List of Machines.

The system displays the Remote Subscriber screen.

3. Complete the fields on this screen by using the information provided in the table for Field Definitions: Remote Subscriber screen.

4. Press F3 (Enter) to save the information in the system database.

The cursor returns to the command line, and the system displays the following message:

Command Successfully Completed.

5. Repeat Step 2 through Step 4 for each remote user you need to add.

6. Enter exit or another administrative command at the enter command: prompt or click Return to Main.
