9.1.3 Set RADIUS Authentication
This function registers the external server (RADIUS server) that is used for authenticat ion when
logging on.
When using RADIUS Authentication, user account information (user name, password, and role)
is stored in the external server. The user account is authenticated using this external server
when logging on to the ETERNUSmgr. By using the RADIUS Authentication, user account
management can be consolidated.
This section explains the procedures for [Set RADIUS Authentication].
The following operations can be performed in [Set RADIUS Authentication].
Enabling RADIUS Authentication Function
Disabling RADIUS Authentication Function
Procedures for each operation are described below.
Enable or disable RADIUS Authentication for each device.
If RADIUS Authentication fails when "Do not use Internal
Authentication" has been selected for "Authentication Error Recovery",
logging on to ETERNUSmgr will not be available.
When "Use Internal Authentication (Network Error Case)" has been
selected for "Authentication Error Recovery", Internal Authentication (*1)
is performed if authentication fails in both the primary and secondary
servers due to network error in either or both of the servers.
*1: Internal Authentication is the standard authentication typ e. Internal
Authentication uses user account information stored in the device to verify
the input user account.
When using RADIUS Authentication, and the role received f rom the
server is not set in the device, the user account is operated as the
default role "Read Only". Use the [Set Role] menu to set the role name
and allowed functions, and register the role name to the server.
Up to two RADIUS servers can be registered.
When using RADIUS Authentication, registering user account
information (user name, password, and role) in RADIUS server is
required. For details, refer to the manuals provided with the server.
*1: Role setting is required when using other than the default role "Read
Only".
