Bug #16197
open
underscore (_) is not permitted in Identifier (Pre-Shared key)
0%
Description
When I put underscore(_) in the identifier, for example "San_Zhang", it will report error when click save.
The following input errors were detected:
The identifier contains invalid characters.
I know this character is not allowed in DNS hostname, but it is allowed in e-mail address or account name.

underscore(_) should be allowed in the account name or the name part (prefix) of the e-mail address, not the domain suffix.
examples of valid:
San_Zhang
San_Zhang@example.com
examples of invalid:
San.Zhang@example_host.com
