CHAPTER 5: AUTHENTICATION DEPLOYMENT TEST AUTHENTICATION SETTINGS
8E6 TECHNOLOGIES, R3000 ENTERPRISE FILTER AUTHENTICATION USER GUIDE 163
NOTE: In order to complete the test process, you should be sure
you have your own filtering profile set up.
To verify that authentication is working, do either of the
following, based on the Tier you selected:
• If Tier 2 or Tier 3 Web-based authentication will be
used: Go to the Test Web-based authentication settings
sub-section for instructions on testing the Authentication
Request Form login page from a single workstation. For
this test, you will create an IP profile for the test
machine’s IP address, and set the Redirect URL for the
profile to access the Authentication Request Form.
NOTE: Before testing Web-based authentication settings, be sure
the SSL certificate you created via the System > Authentication >
Authentication SSL Certificate window (in Chapter 2) is placed on
all workstations of users who will be authenticated. This ensures
that users will not receive the Security Alert warning message
from the server.
• If Tier 1 net use based authentication will be used: Go
to the Test net use authentication settings sub-section for
instructions on testing the net use based login command
to see if you can access the assigned profile.
If you (the administrator) can be successfully authenticated
in the domains that were set up, the test process is
complete, and you are ready to activate authentication on
the network (see Activate Authentication on the Network).
