For security purposes, users attempting to log into the Revelation PDU must be authenticated.
You can use the local database of user profiles in the Revelation PDU, or you can use the
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) or the Remote Access Dial-In User Service
(RADIUS) protocol.
By default, the Revelation PDU is configured for local authentication. If you stay with this
method, you do not have to do anything other than create user profiles for each authorized user. If
you prefer to use an external LDAP or RADIUS server, you have to provide the system with
information about the server.
Keep in mind that you still need to create user profiles for users who are authenticated externally.
This is because the user profile determines the User Group to which the user belongs, and the
User Group determines the user’s system and outlet permissions.

To set up LDAP authentication:
1. Select Device Settings, and then select Authentication. The Authentication Settings window
appears. The LDAP parameters appear on the left side of the window.
