Overview

This document describes how to configure local database authentication on the Palo Alto Networks firewall.

Steps

The local database allows the user login and password information to be entered directly into the Palo Alto Networks firewall database. In this example, user authentication will be configured for Captive Portal using the local database.

  1. Create local users:
