2.2.3 Setting

The authentication policy applied at the time of login determines the authentication method used for logging in to JP1/DH - Server.

Define an authentication method you want to use as the authentication policy, and also define the authentication rule to ensure that the authentication policy is applied properly. The following figure show general procedures for setting authentication.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Creating an LDAP authentication system

To use authentication linked to the directory server, create an LDAP authentication system that defines connection information such as the connection destination URL for the directory server. To link to multiple directory servers, create an LDAP authentication system for each linked directory server.

For authentication with the user management information in JP1/DH - Server, creation of an LDAP authentication system is not necessary, because the connection information is already defined in the standard authentication system to be used.

(2) Creating groups

Create groups.

An authentication policy is applied in units of domain and group. Create appropriate groups according to the types and quantities of authentication policies to be created later.

(3) Creating users

Create users belonging to a domain or group.

For the IDs of users using authentication linked to directory server, specify user IDs managed by the directory server.

(4) Creating an authentication policy

Create an authentication policy.

The type of authentication system selected in authentication policy creation determines the authentication method to be used when the authentication policy is applied.

If you want to use the authentication with the user management information in JP1/DH - Server, select the standard authentication system. If you want to use authentication linked to directory server, select an LDAP authentication system created in (1) Creating an LDAP authentication system.

(5) Creating an authentication rule

Create an authentication rule so that the authentication policy created in (4) Creating an authentication policy applied when the user who belongs to the group created in (2) Creating groups logs in to the system.
