Canon 1 manual Types of Authentication Services, Department ID Management Default Authentication

Types of Authentication Services

The three authentication services described below are provided as login services for MEAP- compatible Canon devices.

Department ID Management (Default Authentication)

Provides the No Authentication function (no login screen displayed) and the Department ID Management function.

Select Default Authentication for the login service if you do not want to perform authentication or if you want to select Department ID Management.

SDL (Simple Device Login)

Performs user authentication (login) based on user information (user name and password) registered in advance by the administrator in the Canon device's hard disk.

Unlike Department ID Management, both alphabetical characters and numbers can be used in registered information. SDL user registration is performed from the SDL User Register/Edit screen.

SSO (Single Sign-On)/SSO-H (Single Sign-On H)

The following three user authentication methods are available for SSO or SSO-H:

•Domain Authentication

•Local Device Authentication

•Domain + Local Device Authentication

This method performs login by connecting to the domain controller on the network and using the information (user name and password) managed by Active Directory. By using this method, you can log in to the network from a Canon device using the same user name and password for computers and other network devices.

NOTE

•For more information on the supported authentication devices, see the manual accompanying your device.

•To use SSO, you must set install an application module called SA (Security Agent) on a networked computer. If you are using SSO-H, it is not necessary to install SA.
