Reference Guide

As the diagram depicts, OMIMSWAC interacts with downloads.dell.com through HTTPS protocol and with the network
share through the CIFS.
OMIMSWAC does not store any credentials in any database or file storage. Secure session token is stored in browser cache and
then it is discarded as soon as the session is invalidated. All accesses are managed by Microsoft Windows Admin Center (MS
WAC) itself.
Authentication
Windows Admin Center user authentication
OMIMSWAC extension depends on authentication provided by the Windows Admin Center (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-
us/windows-server/manage/windows-admin-center/plan/user-access-options) for managing/connecting to the target nodes.
OMIMSWAC works only under a Gateway Administrator.
Login security settings
By default, Active Directory or local machine groups are used to control gateway access. If there is an Active Directory domain,
user can manage gateway user and administrator access from within the Windows Admin Center interface.
Failed login behavior
Dell EMC OpenManage Integration is a tool extension used in Windows Admin Center. You can access the extension by logging
into Windows Admin Center. For invalid credentials, Windows Admin Center does not allow to sign in and prompt again to enter
valid credentials.
