How to control Multiple logins from same user on Sonicwall

The administrator can control/restrict the user sessions to allow either a single connection/per user or multiple connections/per user.

When Enforce login uniqueness is enabled, it will prevent the same user name from being used to log into the network/VPN (Global VPN Client or SSL VPN) from more than one location/device at a time. This setting applies to both local users and RADIUS/LDAP users. However the login uniqueness setting does not apply to the default administrator with the username admin.
