XG210 Local user questions

Hi SHtan,

Thank you for reaching out to Sophos Community.

1. Is there way to view *all* useraccounts in the XG210? From Authentication > Users, I can't see the admin account.

==> 'admin' is a default super administrator account and we recommend using a strong password for it.

2. Is there any way to disable or rename this admin account?

==> 'admin' account details can't be modified.

3. I've created one account with Administrator privileges. From Authentication > Users, I can see this particular account. However, it is showing User ID 4. I would have thought this would show User ID 1 or 2. is this correct?

==> When you create a user on Sophos XG firewall, it automatically associates the User ID with the account that will be used for user identification by different security modules(web filter/app filter/synchronized security and more).

4. Where can i change the global setting for Simultaneous logins? Can't find it in the V18.5 manuals

==> Global settings can be configured under CONFIGURE > Authentication > Services.

Thanks Yash! This works!
