When
you
delete
a

locally

authenticated

user

from

the

ANM

database,

ANM

deletes

all

the

global
and
user-specific

groups

that

the

user

created.

However,

when

you

delete

a

remotely

authorized

user
from
the

remote

AAA

server

database,

ANM

does

not

delete

the

groups

that

the

user

created.

In

this
case,
you

must

manually

delete

the

user’s

groups.
