Enterasys NetSight OS Authentication Login

Enterasys NetSight OS Authentication Login

I've arrived in a new role finding myself as the admin of an Enterasys Network. We have Netsight v4.21 set up on a server, and have at least one other admin accessing this with his own credentials.

I'm a different story though.

I've replaced the admin that had the knowledge of how to set up users, and can't get my credentials to work. The only way I can access the device is using the root login, which for obvious reasons I don't want to make a habit of. I've added my username to the device, which is the same username as my machine, but get nothing but failure trying to log in with my own credentials. Using OS Authentication, there seems to be no real options on the server side, so what am I missing on the OS side that makes this work?

Still getting nothing, even after adding that in. Are there any settings within Windows that need adjusting to allow this to work?

Yes, that also needs to be added as DOMAIN\User

The OS is Windows 7. I've been trying to user DOMAIN\User with my domain credentials. I've added my domain's username to the user list, but only as "User". Should that also be DOMAIN\User?

DJ - What operating system is the NetSight installed on? Is it linux or Windows? If it's windows, make sure that you start log in using domain\username. Also when logged in as root, make sure you add your account to the netsight administrators group as well.
