Enabling External 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 PX follows these
rules for authentication:
When any of the remote authentication servers in the access list is
accessible, the PX authenticates against the connected
authentication server only.
When the connection to all remote authentication servers fails, the
PX allows authentication against the local database.
To enable both authentication services:
1. Choose Device Settings > Security > Authentication. The
Authentication Settings dialog appears.
2. Make sure you have selected one external authentication radio
button, such as the LDAP radio button.
3. Select the "Use Local Authentication if Remote Authentication
service is not available" checkbox.
4. Click
OK.
Outlet Management
The PX allows you to remotely customize the name of each outlet or
check the receptacle type of each outlet through the web interface.
With PX2-2000 series, you can even remotely turn on/off each outlet.
Naming Outlets
You can give each outlet a unique name up to 32 characters long to
identify the equipment connected to it. The customized name is followed
by the label in parentheses.
Note: In this context, a label is an outlet number, such as 1, 2, 3 and so
on.
To name an outlet:
1. Click Outlets in the PX Explorer pane, and the Outlets page opens in
the right pane.
2. Select the outlet you want in the right pane. Or click the desired
outlet in the PX Explorer pane.
