  • Users can add, edit, reset passwords and delete operations. May locate user quickly by search.
  • Each user can manage their own credentials. In order to improve the management of keys and user passwords, put common passwords on the platform, and manage them through a unified interface, so that users do not need to remember user names and passwords when they need identity verification.
  • When tenant administrators and IaaS administrators create keys, they can allow sharing, and the created keys are open for tenant members to use. But for tenant members, each business group member can only use the keys created and shared by business group members.

2. My Credentials

Users can create and manage their own credentials. Credentials include two types: keys or passwords. Users save frequently used credentials at a unified entrance. If identity verification is required when users request services or perform change operations, saved credentials can be used automatically. Among them, only tenant administrators and IaaS administrators can create shared credentials for all users.

2.1. Create Credentials

  • Steps to create and use key type credentials:

    • On the "My Credentials" page, enter the key name (only numbers or letters), select the algorithm (RSA) and length, which currently supports three key lengths of 1024, 2048 and 4096.

    • Import key. Users can import private key and public key into the system for later use (for example, the corresponding public key has been configured in the virtual machine image). Click "Import Key", enter the key name, and fill in the private key.

    • Use key. In the virtual machine template, if selecting key pair as verification type, users can only select the shared key type credentials (newly generated or imported key) that already exist in the system.

    • When adding (password), fill in the user name, password, confirm password (the password entered before and after must be consistent).

    • During service configuration, user can be allowed to modify the password created by the administrator, and system also supports users to choose their own credentials or manually enter the user name and password when requesting the service.
