Authentication Settings
The authentication settings set the authentication method and related settings. The ConnectPort LTS
supports following authentication methods.
 None: When selected, user can access the serial port without authentication. This is the factory
default setting.
 Local: When selected, the user who registered the local database of ConnectPort LTS through
user configuration can only access the serial port.
 Radius: When selected, the user who registered the database of the specified Radius server can
access the serial port only. The Radius authentication method can be further divided into
following four categories:
Radius server: User authentication is performed only through the Radius server.
Radius server - Local: User authentication is performed through the Radius server first. If
authentication succeeds, the user can access the serial port. If authentication fails, user
authentication is performed through the local database of ConnectPort LTS again.
Local - Radius server: User authentication is performed through the local database of
ConnectPort LTS first. If authentication succeeds, user can access the serial port. If
authentication fails, user authentication is performed through the Radius server again.
Radius down - Local: User authentication is performed through the Radius server first. If
authentication succeeds, user can access the serial port. If the Radius server does not
respond to the authentication request from the ConnectPort LTS, user authentication is
performed through local database of ConnectPort LTS again. If the authentication through
the Radius server is failed, authentication through local database of ConnectPort LTS is not
performed and the user cannot access the serial port.
