Net use based authentication process

The following diagram and steps describe the operations of the net use based user authentication process:

Fig. 1-5 Net use based authentication module diagram

1.The user logs on the network from a Windows worksta- tion (also known as “client” or “machine”).

2.The authentication server on the network sends the user’s workstation a login script containing a net use command.

3.The execution of this net use command causes the Windows workstation to create an “IPC share” (command exchange) with the R3000 filter box as a shared network device.

NOTE: When the IPC share is created, no drives are mapped in this share.
