RSA SecurID external authentication service
When an RSA SecurID external authentication service is added, the Rack Power Manager
software obtains user authentication information and relays it to the RSA Authentication
Manager. The RSA Authentication Manager’s validation results are then relayed to the user.
The Rack Power Manager software also supports new PIN operations, next tokencode
operations, RSA Authentication Manager Replica functionality and name locking. The Rack
Power Manager software is the agent type Net OS Agent.
See RSA SecurID login on page 11 for information about the login process when an RSA
SecurID external authentication service is used. Consult the RSA Authentication Manager
documentation for additional details.
For complete information about what is needed on the RSA server, see the RSA Secured Partner
Solutions Directory on the RSA web site (rsasecurity.com).
