Manage the OXPd Authentication Agent Repository

When a user signs in on an OXPd-enabled device to access secure features, the device initiates an authentication process by invoking a proxy from a third-party solution. The proxy, which is called an OXPd authentication agent, contacts the authentication server and authenticates the user before the user is allowed to gain access to the secure features. OXPd authentication agent files contain the information that devices require to contact authentication servers and authenticate users.

Import OXPd authentication agent files

1.Go to Tools > Options > Device Management > Configuration > OXPd Authentication Agents.

2.Click the Import button.

3.On the Open window, navigate to and select the OXPd authentication agent files, and then click the Open button.
