Chapter 3
Authenticating Users
Remote users connecting to the SSL VPN Concentrator must be authenticated before being allowed to access the network. The login window presented to the user requires three items: a User Name, a Password, and a Domain selection. The Domain determines the authentication method to be used and the portal layout that will be presented. This chapter explains how to define authentication domains.
It describes:
•Authentication Domains
•Local User Database Authentication
•RADIUS and NT Domain Authentication
•Configuring for NT Domain Authentication
•LDAP Authentication
•Active Directory Authentication
•Kerberos Authentication
•Deleting a Domain
If your implementation consists of a small number of users, a single portal layout, and no central authentication server, you can skip this chapter and simply use the default domain “geardomain.”
