Configuring Authentication [OSD]
An administrative user can use the “Authentication” option under
Configuration in the OSD to specify an authentication method for the OnSite
(under “Unit Authetication) and to configure authentication servers. You need
to identify an authentication server for each authentication method specified
for the OnSite, for direct logins to KVM ports, or for logins to serial ports.
The authentication servers must be fully configured and available for the
OnSite to access over the network. Work with the system administrator of the
authentication server to obtain the information you need to enter on the
authentication screens.
