Parameters

user_group_name

The group name (up to 16 characters) that contains user ID names which represent clients when the client certificate is translated into a user ID.

user_IDs

An exact user ID name or a wildcard user ID name.

User ID names can be wildcarded when specified in a group.

% or ? is a single character position wildcard. It can be placed anywhere.
* is a multi-position wildcard. It can only be placed at the end of the user ID.
The two wildcard types can be used together. For example, U%%V5* is a valid wildcard name.

The position of the single wildcard (%) is used first to determine the most specific match. For example, the following wildcard names are checked in the order listed:

M5MUSER*
M5M%%%%*
M5%USER*
M%MUSER*
M%MUS%R*
M%MUS%*
M%MU%ER*
M*
