The following diagram and steps describe the operations of
the time-based authentication process:

Fig. A-2 Web-based authentication module diagram

1. The user makes a Web request by entering a URL in his/

her browser window.

2. The R3000 intercepts this request and sends the user

the Authentication Request Form, requesting the user to
log in with his/her login ID and password.

3. The R3000 verifies the user’s information with the

authentication server (Domain Controller, Active Direc-
tory, LDAP, etc.).

4. The authenticated user is allowed to access the

requested URL for the time period specified by the
administrator.
