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: 
Access Level as Operator and will have access to all the Firewall devices.
