Authentication
The Authentication page allows administrators to define the authentication policies for a specific group of users, based on their domain. To define an authentication policy, go to Identities > Authentication.
Authentication Options
The following authentication options are:
Option | Description |
---|---|
Windows Integrated (IWA) | Standard, automated authentication through Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) |
Password | Manual authentication where users are prompted to enter their Active Directory credentials |
Provisional | Users that will not be authenticated |
The default authentication type for the Site-wide Default policy is Windows Integrated (IWA) and Password. Therefore, no additional policies need to be created if you desire to support standard Active Directory-based authentication between the client and the PEM.
If you have clients belonging to domains in your infrastructure that cannot authenticate with PEM, you can create a policy for those domains and select Provisional as the authentication type.
Create an Authentication Policy
To create an authentication policy, select Add then populate the following fields:
Field | Description |
---|---|
Name | The name of the authentication policy |
Domain | The specific domain that will be assigned to the authentication policy. For example, @domain.com |
Authentication | Select the authentication type from the drop-down which will be enforced to users belonging to domain, specified in the policy |
