   | Name | Enter a unique and descriptive name for this credential. |
   | User name | Name to identify the user. |
   | Password | Password to use this credential. |
   | Active | Option to enable the use of this credential. |
   | Order | The order (sequence) in which the platform tries this credential while it attempts to log in to devices. The smaller the number, the higher in the list this credential appears. Establish credential order when using large numbers of credentials or when security locks out users after three failed login attempts.
