Authentication

Overview

The Authentication service can be enabled to prevent unauthorized use of installed device options. A
System Administrator can configure the machine such that a walk-up user cannot access Color Copy,
Network Scanning, E-mail, Internet Fax and Server Fax (when these features are installed on the machine)
unless the user has been authenticated.

There are four authentication options:

Authentication Off (if available) Users can access any service without restriction.

Network Authentication The System Administrator can select one of the following operating systems to
provide network authentication:

Kerberos (Solaris)

Kerberos (Windows 2000/2003)

NDS (Novell 4.x/5.x)

SMB (Windows 2000/2003).

Local Authentication With Local Authentication enabled, the System Administrator defines a passcode
remotely, using a web browser, or locally at the machine, allowing users to authenticate to the system and
use restricted services.
