SETTINGS – APPLICATIONS
9.2.2.6 Operating OmniView IP 5000HQ in external
authentication mode
In external authentication (LDAP) mode, OmniView IP 5000HQ Manager
will no longer allow login for the users that were created in local
authentication mode. These users will be deleted. New users will be
imported from Active Directory.
OmniView IP 5000HQ Manager will validate all user credentials against
the LDAP server only.
Only the “admin” account retains local authentication as a “backdoor”
account. This user has OmniView IP 5000HQ local access. Admin
account is allowed to manage OmniView IP 5000HQ with “administrator”
access privileges. However, “admin” is not permitted to connect to
targets. This account will allow reversing the external authentication
mode at any time to local authentication mode.
There is no direct access to any IP device, even to its Configuration
page. OmniView IP 5000HQ will act as a gateway.
When changing OmniView IP 5000HQ to local authentication mode,
all imported users appear as “inactive.” To reactivate the users, the
administrator must set a password for each account.
Clicking the “New User” button on the “Users” page opens the
“Import LDAP Users” window.
