Remote Authentication Setup
When [Login to Remote Accounts] is enabled, machine users will be prompted to
provide their user ID and passcode to be validated by the designated authentication
server. If this validation is successful, the machine and any restricted services will be
available for individual use.
Preparations:
1.
Ensure the machine is fully functional on the network.
2.
Ensure that the TCP/IP, with DNS/WINS enabled, and HTTP protocols are
configured on the machine and fully functional. Refer to those topics in this guide
for configuring information as required. This is required to access CentreWare
Internet Services to configure authentication. CentreWare Internet Services is
accessed through the embedded HTTP server on the machine and allows the
System Administrator to configure Authentication settings by using a web
browser.
3.
Ensure the authentication server to be used is functional on your network. Refer
to your manufacturer’s documentation for instructions to complete this task.
At Your Workstation:
1.
Open your web browser and enter the TCP/IP address of the machine in the
[Address] or [Location] field. Click [Enter] to access CentreWare Internet Services.
2.
Click the [Properties] tab.
3.
Expand the [Accounting] folder, and then click [Accounting Configuration]. On the
page displayed, select [Local Accounting] from the [Accounting Type] drop-down
list.
4.
Click [Apply] to reboot the machine.
5.
Expand the [Security] folder, and then click [Authentication Configuration]. On the
page displayed, select [Login to Remote Accounts] from the [Login Type] drop-
down list.
6.
Click [Apply] to reboot the machine.
7.
Expand the [Security] folder, and then click [Authentication Configuration]. On the
page displayed, place a checkmark in the [Enabled] box for each service that you
wish to restrict access to.
NOTE: If the [Guest User] box is available and configurable, consider whether it is
advisable in your network environment to allow simple passcode, guest access to this
restricted service machine. The default setting is [Off].
