CHAPTER 2: NETWORK SETUP SET UP THE NETWORK FOR AUTHENTICATION

Web-based authentication

Choose either Tier 2 or Tier 3 if Web-based authentication will be used.

NOTE: If selecting either Tier 2 or Tier 3, please be informed that in an organization with more than 5000 users, slowness may be experienced during the authentication process. In this scenario, 8e6 recommends using an R3000 Filter with an SSL accelerator card installed. Please contact 8e6 for more information.

Tier 2: Use time-based profiles, with time-out (in minutes) – Choose this option if using NT and/or LDAP authentication, and you want the user to have a time limit on his/her Internet connection. This option uses an authentica- tion servlet that lets the user log into either domain with no persistent connection between the client PC and the R3000.

1.Click “Tier 2”.

2.Enter a whole number for the duration of time the user will retain his/her Internet connection.

3.Click Apply to open the alert box that confirms your selection.
