Configuring Rights
The Connection Profile is used in the Rights Assignment Table, in concert with the Identity Profile, to
determine a client’s access rights. If the client is unknown (i.e. has not been authenticated and does not
match a known MAC address in the built-in database) the Connection Profile determines how to
authenticate the client. This can include specification of a custom logon page as well as defining the
Authentication Policy to use for authentication.
» To view the currently defined Connection Profiles, click the Connection Profiles tab visible at the top of
any Rights Manager page.
The Connection Profiles page appears (see Figure 4-13).
