Users
Users is a standard configuration interface for individual user accounts of Unified Assurance. This is also where Administrators can reset passwords manually or change user information.
Refer to the Standard Configuration Interface guide for details on interacting with the grid and form.
This user interface calls REST methods from api/AAA/users.
The UI path for this interface is Configuration -> AAA -> Users.
