Check the Enable Integrated Windows

®

Authentication checkbox to automatically log a user

into the DSView 3 software using the Windows user’s computer credentials.

Web browser settings may need to be modified to allow users to automatically log in using
Integrated Windows Authentication; see your web browser documentation.

5.

To enable only DSView 3 software clients with IP addresses entered in the Address List to
communicate with managed appliances, check the Restrict by address range checkbox. To
disable address restrictions for logging into the DSView 3 software, uncheck this checkbox.

6.

Enable or disable Allow login when user is a member of more than one authentication service
as desired. The preset value is disabled. When enabled, if a user belongs to multiple
authentication services, the DSView 3 server uses the first authentication service found to log
the user in. When disabled, if a user belongs to multiple authentication services, the attempt to
log in to the DSView 3 software fails.

When enabled, if a user has different access rights within each authentication service he
belongs to, the user is granted access rights based on the first authentication service found by
the DSView 3 server. In this case, a user may be granted different access rights at different
login times.

NOTE: The Allow login when user is a member of more than one authentication service setting does not replicate
to spoke servers. It is recommended that you uniformly enable or disable this setting on each DSView 3 hub and
spoke server.
