Authentication Settings
Security in the ENVIROMUX can be managed one of two ways; through the local settings (passwords assigned in user settings on
page 43) or through an LDAP server. If security is configured to use LDAP mode, then the passwords for users must be those
found on a configured LDAP server.
Select “Authentication Settings” from the list and press <Enter>. A menu providing an option to either user Local authentication
or LDAP mode. When in LDAP mode, usernames on the LDAP server must match those in the user settings of the ENVIROMUX
or access will be denied.
Note: When the root user logs with the ENVIROMUX in LDAP mode, if the LDAP server is not responding, local
authentication will be tried.
