External Authentication Settings
Firewall Analyzer provides two more external authentication apart from the local
authentication. They are Active Directory authentication and Remote
Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) authentication. If you import users
from Active Directory or if you add a RADIUS server details, you will find the Options
>> link besides the Login button in the Firewall Analyzer Client UI Login screen. If you
click the Options >> link, Log on to field will appear below the Password field. The
Log on to field will list the following options:
• Local Authentication - If the user details are available in local Firewall
Analyzer server user database
• Radius Authentication - If the user details are available in RADIUS server
and dummy user entry should be available in local Firewall Analyzer server
user database
• Domain Name(s) - If the details of the user of a domain is imported from
Active Directory into the local Firewall Analyzer server user database
Enter the User Name and Password. Select one of the three options in Log on to
(Local Authentication or Radius Authentication or Domain Name). Click Login
button to log in to Firewall Analyzer Client UI.
Active Directory Configuration Settings
Users in the AD (Active Directory) can be imported into Firewall Analyzer server. You
have to select the required OUs (Organizational Units) under the Listed domains. You
can re scan the network to find domains. Login to individual servers of the domain to get
the OUs listed and select the OUs as per your requirement. Use the server credentials
(User Name & Password) to login to the server. For the first time, all the users will be
imported into Firewall Analyzer. On subsequent or periodic imports, only the new user
added to the AD will be imported.
The imported users will be added in the Firewall Analyzer server with the following
constraints:
