Web client users are users that access Peer Management Center through the web client.

Web users can be divided into two types based on how their access to the web client is authenticated:

•Internal users - Users whose access to the web client is authenticated through the internal PMC database.

•Active Directory (AD) users and groups - Users whose access to the web client is authenticated through Active Directory.

You add, modify, and delete web users through the User Management page in Preferences.  The User Management page is also where you specify the Active Directory account that will be used when Peer Management Center queries Active Directory for authentication.

Management of web users can be performed through the rich client or through the web client by a user with an Administrator role. For more information, see:
