one central location (Kerberos server). When an IPBS/IPBL is setup as a Kerberos server the
IPBS/IPBL act as an authentication server for the rest of the IPBSs/IPBLs that are setup as
client devices in the installation. The Kerberos server and the group of client devices constitute
a domain called a realm. During Kerberos communication no password is actually sent over the
