Security
Security in the ENVIROMUX can be managed one of two ways; through the local settings (passwords assigned in user settings on
page 41) or through an LDAP server. If security is configured to use LDAP mode, then the passwords for users must be those
found on a configured LDAP server. To view the Security Configuration page, select
Security
in the
Administration
section of
the menu.
Figure 43- Security Configuration page
When in LDAP mode, usernames on the LDAP server must match those in the user settings of the ENVIROMUX or access will be
denied.
Note: When in LDAP mode, if the LDAP server is not responding, local authentication will be tried.
