User authentication
RAID Manager allows user authentication by using the user information managed by Remote Web
Console and the SVP.
User authentication is arbitrary in the Replication operation in the in-band method while the operation
by user authentication is mandatory in the configuration information operation and in the out-of-band
method.

accessed by RAID Manager must be enabled.

the user ID and password sent from RAID Manager and the same types of information maintained
by the storage system, issues an authentication request to the authentication module (SVP).
If the user ID and password sent from RAID Manager are authenticated, RAID Manager, for the
once authenticated user (the user on the client starting up RAID Manager), stores the user ID and
