The root Admin account is authenticated only through the NetMRI local authentication database. Other administrator accounts can be authenticated and authorized against an external server. |
If you define one or more authentication servers under Authentication Services Settings, NetMRI uses the account information from those servers in the order given by priority to accept or reject a given username and password. The only exception is the admin account, which is always validated using the Local Database. NetMRI can be accessed by the system administrator even when authentication servers are down or cannot be accessed by the appliance.
