Objective

The objective of this article is to show you how to configure the administrator and guest users on the RV130 and RV130W Router.

The RV130 and RV130W Router provides user accounts in order to view and administer settings. Users can be from different groups or logical groups of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) that share the authentication domain, Local Area Network (LAN) and service access rules, and idle timeout settings. User management defines which type of users can utilize a certain type of facility and how that can be done.
