Protector can be
configured to authenticate users and groups against the following:
- Local accounts on a Protector node running any supported OS.
- Accounts in Active Directory via a Protector proxy node running Windows.
- Accounts on an LDAP Server via a Protector proxy node running Linux or AIX.
- Accounts on a RADIUS server via a Protector proxy node running any supported OS.
- Accounts in Hitachi Ops Center via OpenID Connect to support single sign-on.
When a user logs in via the Protector web UI they must provide either their:
- Username – to identify themselves to Protector.
- Authentication Space - to tell Protector which authentication service to use.
- Password – to authenticate themselves.
or, if integrated with Hitachi Ops Center, redirect to the single sign-on page to provide their Ops Center credentials.
