Create and configure a user within users.xml

You can edit users.xml to create and configure users in IXIA CCMS Web.

1. From the Administration menu, click User Management.
2. Click Edit.
   A message appears saying "users.xml has been checked out."
3. Create a new user by creating a version of the following XML code that is customized for your new user, replacing the content in square brackets:

   
   			<user active="true">
   				<reference/>
   				<name>
   					<prefix/>
   					<first>[First Name of User]</first>
   					<middle/>
   					<last>[Last Name of User]</last>
   				</name>
   				<location>[Company Division or Geographic Location]</location>
   				<identifier>
   					<domain>[URL of Domain]</domain>
   					<login>[Set the User's Login]</login>
   				</identifier>
   				<email>
   					<type>[Email format, usually "text"]</type>
   					<address>[username@your_domain.com]</address>
   				</email>
   				<roles>
   					<role name="[Valid Role Name]"/>
   				</roles>
   				<groups>
   					<group name="[Valid Group Name]"/>
   				</groups>
   			</user>

4. Once done, insert your modified code within users.xml, either immediately before or after another user entry.
   Note: If there are any errors in your XML, they are highlighted in red. Errors must be fixed prior to saving the users.xml file.
5. Click Save.
   A message appears saying: "users.xml has been saved and checked in."
