8E6 TECHNOLOGIES, R3000 ENTERPRISE FILTER AUTHENTICATION USER GUIDE 249
firewall mode - An R3000 set up in the firewall mode will
filter all requests. If the request is appropriate, the original
packet will pass unchanged. If the request is inappropriate,
the original packet will be blocked from being routed
through.
global administrator - An authorized administrator of the
network who maintains all aspects of the R3000, except for
managing master IP groups and their members, and their
associated filtering profiles. The global administrator config-
ures the R3000, sets up master IP groups, and performs
routine maintenance on the server.
group administrator - An authorized administrator of the
network who maintains a master IP group, setting up and
managing members within that group. This administrator
also adds and maintains customized library categories for
the group.
group name - The name of a group set up for a domain on
an NT server. For example: “production” or “sales”.
invisible mode - An R3000 set up in the invisible mode will
filter all connections on the Ethernet between client PCs and
the Internet, without stopping each IP packet on the same
Ethernet segment. The unit will only intercept a session if an
inappropriate request was submitted by a client.
LDAP - One of two authentication method protocols used by
the R3000. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is
a directory service protocol based on entries (Distinguished
Names).
LDAP host - The LDAP domain name and DNS suffix. For
example: “yahoo.com” or “server.local”.
login (or logon) script - Consists of syntax that is used for
re-authenticating a user if the network connection between
the user’s machine and the server is lost.
machine name - Pertains to the name of the user’s work-
station machine (computer).
