Login Services 2-3
Types of Authentication Services
The three authentication services described below are provided as login services for MEAP-
compatible Canon devices.
Department ID Management (Default Authentication)
Provides the No Authentication function (no login screen displayed) and the Department ID
Management function.
Select Default Authentication for the login service if you do not want to perform authentication or if
you want to select Department ID Management.
SDL (Simple Device Login)
Performs user authentication (login) based on user information (user name and password) registered
in advance by the administrator in the Canon device's hard disk.
Unlike Department ID Management, both alphabetical characters and numbers can be used in
registered information. SDL user registration is performed from the SDL User Register/Edit screen.
SSO (Single Sign-On)/SSO-H (Single Sign-On H)
The following three user authentication methods are available for SSO or SSO-H:
Domain Authentication
Local Device Authentication
Domain + Local Device Authentication
This method performs login by connecting to the domain controller on the network and using the
information (user name and password) managed by Active Directory. By using this method, you can
log in to the network from a Canon device using the same user name and password for computers
and other network devices.
NOTE
For more information on the supported authentication devices, see the manual accompanying
your device.
To use SSO, you must set install an application module called SA (Security Agent) on a networked
computer. If you are using SSO-H, it is not necessary to install SA.
