The User Management screen allows you to define ScaleArc user accounts and their access permissions to ScaleArc clusters.
ScaleArc can communicate with third-party authentication servers over LDAP, REST API, and can also manage users locally.
Setting up user accounts for ScaleArc involves configuring:
- The policies and access control permissions for users/groups.
- The type of authentication for users.
