Authentication
User authentication is a process that verifies the identity of a user who connects to a
device.
Any user interaction with Reason H49 requires authentication through a login and
password, whatever the interaction service (protocol) and regardless of the
interaction type (read, write).
8.1.4.1
Central Authentication
Reason H49 operates with LDAP for central authentication.
Centralized username/password management reduces the maintenance, as all user
credentials are stored in a server and not in each individual device.
To use centralized accounts, check the
LDAP Server Enabled
option in the
Security
> Security Settings
page.
When central authentication is used, then central authorization is applied. The
central authorization service provides the list of user’s roles.
The configuration of the LDPA server address, encryption mode, access account, etc.
is done in the
Security > LDPA Server
page.
Redundant LDAP server can be configured to ensure system redundancy.
