Disabling the LDAP Authentication
When the remote authentication service is disabled, the Dominion PX
authenticates users against the local database stored on the Dominion PX
device.
To disable the LDAP authentication service:
1. Choose Device Settings > Security > Authentication. The
Authentication Settings dialog appears.
2. Select the Local Authentication radio button.
3. Click OK to save the changes.
Enabling LDAP and Local Authentication Services
To make authentication function properly all the time -- even when
external authentication is not available, you can enable both the local and
remote authentication services.
When both authentication services are enabled, the Dominion PX follows
these rules for authentication:
When any of the LDAP/LDAPS servers in the access list is accessible,
the Dominion PX authenticates against the connected LDAP/LDAPS
server only.
When the connection to every LDAP/LDAPS server fails, the
Dominion PX allows authentication against the local database.
To enable both authentication services:
1. Choose Device Settings > Security > Authentication. The
Authentication Settings dialog appears.
2. Ensure the LDAP radio button has been selected.
3. Select the "Use Local Authentication if Remote Authentication service
is not available" checkbox.
4. Click OK to save the changes.
Outlet Management
The Dominion PX allows you to remotely customize the name of each
outlet or remotely check which circuit breaker is associated with each
outlet through the web interface.
With PX-2000 series, you can even remotely turn on/off each outlet.
