Allow local logins
After enabling integration with an Enterprise directory, as a security feature, local logins can be disabled. Use this procedure to reinstate local logins if they have been previously disabled. The Local login on the Security/Edit Security screen allows you to enable or disable the configured local users to log in to the appliance. On disabling local users, logging in requires a directory service for authenticating logins.
If a directory is inaccessible in some special cases, you can enable the emergency local login. See Enable emergency local login.
