Integrated windows authentication
Previously known as Windows NT Challenge/Response (NT/CR) or NT LAN Manager
(NTLM), Integrated Windows Authentication is a secure form of web browser authentication
using either the Kerberos V5 authentication protocol or its own challenge/response
authentication protocol.
This authentication method works best in an intranet environment where the types of web
browsers that your network users access may be controlled. If you are already logged on to
Windows, Integrated Windows Authentication uses your logon information for authentication,
so it will not prompt for a username and password [known as Single Sign-On (SSO)].
Integrated Windows Authentication only works with Internet Explorer and does not work with
an HTTP proxy. Integrated Windows Authentication must be explicitly enabled under the
Advance Internet Options dialog box of Internet Explorer version 6.0 SP1 and above.
Java
Java is an environment for developing and deploying distributed, scalable, enterprise-level
applications designed to run on networks, the Internet, and the WWW. The Java platform
consists of a set of services, Application Program Interfaces (APIs) and protocols that provide
functionality for developing multitiered, web-based applications.
KVM
KVM is an abbreviation of Keyboard, Video, Mouse.
KVM session
A KVM session is a type of target device session in which the target device contains a KVM
connection (typically a server). KVM sessions are connected through a KVM switch. Tiered
analog switches may also be part of the connection. A KVM Video Viewer connection exists
between the DSView 3 software client and the target device.
KVM session profiles
KVM session profiles control KVM session behavior on a target device. A profile contains
Video Viewer settings in general, cursor, toolbar, video and mouse scaling categories. There is
a default KVM session profile which a target device will use if no other profile is assigned to
it. Appliance administrators may create and modify profiles. Appliance administrators or users
with unit configure or unit edit rights may assign a profile to a target device.
KVM switch
KVM switch refers to a unit that allows KVM sessions to a target device and is supported by
the DSView 3 software. KVM switches include the DSR switch and other switches supported
by plug-ins.
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)
LDAP is a set of protocols for accessing information directories. LDAP is based on standards
contained in the X.500 standard, but is significantly simpler. Unlike X.500, LDAP supports
TCP/IP, which is necessary for Internet access. Because LDAP is a simpler version of X.500, it
is sometimes called X.500-lite.
