authentication method that is configured for the virtual console server or the ports is used for
authentication of any user who attempts to log in through Telnet, SSH or the web manager.
Appliance authentication
The virtual console server authenticates for the virtual console server and the ports, either in
groups or individually.
NOTE: Itisadvised whenusinggroup authorization thatyouuse thesameauthorizationfor both thevirtualconsole
server andallserialports,or useSingleSign-onAuthenticationto facilitategroup authorization.
When Single Sign-on Authentication is disabled, the virtual console server uses the individual
port configurations. Users must use their password each time they access an individual port. If
enabled, Single Sign-on Authentication will use the authentication server you choose from the
pull-down menu for all ports and no further authentication will be needed when accessing the
port after that.
NOTE: Selectingunconfigured from the pull-downmenu willallow theportstocontinueto useindividual
authenticationservers,and willrequire your password the firsttimeyou accessanyport. After that,the port willnot
requirepassword authentication if SingleSign-onAuthenticationisenabled.
To set authentication for the console server:
1. Click Authentication - Appliance Authentication.
2. Select the desired authentication server from the Authentication Type drop-down menu.
3. Select Enable single sign-on to enable single sign-on authentication, and select the desired
authentication server from the Authentication Type drop-down menu.
