Chapter 6: User Management 
 

Authentication is the process of verifying that a user is who he says he 
is. Once a user is authenticated, the user's group is used to determine 
his system and port permissions. The user's assigned privileges 
determine what type of access is allowed. This is called authorization. 

When the Dominion KX II is configured for remote authentication, the 
external authentication server is used primarily for the purposes of 
authentication, not authorization. 

From the Authentication Settings page you can configure the type of 
authentication used for access to your Dominion KX II.   

 

1.  Choose User Management > Authentication Settings. The 

Authentication Settings page opens. 

2.  Choose the option for the authentication protocol you want to use 

(Local Authentication, LDAP/LDAPS, or RADIUS). Choosing the 
LDAP option enables the remaining LDAP fields; selecting the 
RADIUS option enables the remaining RADIUS fields. 

3.  If you choose Local Authentication, proceed to step 6. 

4.  If you choose LDAP/LDAPS, read the section entitled Implementing 

LDAP Remote Authentication for information about completing the 
fields in the LDAP section of the Authentication Settings page. 

5.  If you choose RADIUS, read the section entitled Implementing 

RADIUS Remote Authentication for information about completing the 
fields in the RADIUS section of the Authentication Settings page. 

6.  Click OK to save.
