Native Registry is a combination of a User name and Password that is entered for a user when they are created in Network Configuration Manager. The setup of the Native Registry actually occurs at the time the user is created. For more information, see Create a User .

The User name/Password details are stored locally in Network Configuration Manager. Actual changes to the User name/Password are completed by editing the user profile .

Note: The details located within the Authentication Server module are for security access settings only.

The number of failures can be designated so the user is locked out of the system after entering the wrong user ID/password combination by a set number of attempts. When a user is locked out of Network Configuration Manager an authorized user (such as the System Administrator) must go into the Edit user feature, and unlock the users access.
