Authentication

Authentication is a security feature that requires users to provide a network username and password before using Digital Sending features. Authentication can be turned on or off for each device that the DSS supports.

NOTE: At no time are the credentials that are used to authenticate at the device written to either the DSS server or the device hard disk. In addition, although the credentials that the DSS administrator uses to configure authentication or LDAP addressing are written to the DSS server hard disk, a hashing algorithm is incorporated to ensure that these credentials cannot be recovered.
