Authentication Server Requirements
If configuring any authentication method other than Local, OTP, or OTP/Local, make sure an authentication server is set up for that method. The following list is a summary of the requirements for authentication servers.
The administrator configuring the OnSite needs to work with the administrator of each authentication server to get user accounts set up and to obtain information needed for configuring access to the authentication server on the OnSite.
For example, if LDAP authentication is to be used for logins to the OnSite and if Kerberos authentication is to be used for logins to devices connected to serial ports, then the OnSite needs to have network access to both an LDAP and a Kerberos authentication server, and the administrator needs to perform configuration on the OnSite for each type of authentication server.
Configuration on the OnSite involves supplying the required information to identify the authentication server.
