NetMRI User Authentication and Authorization

NetMRI uses internal and external authentication systems to control user authentication for performing all administrative tasks. For a simple rollout, you can use the NetMRI local authentication database, which is called the local authentication service, where all user accounts and login information are contained within the appliance. You can also link NetMRI to an external Active Directory, RADIUS, TACACS+, LDAP, SAML, or OCSP authentication server or server group in the enterprise network to perform user authentication and authorization for NetMRI tasks, using the same user roles and privileges defined on the local NetMRI system. Doing so requires creating new authentication services in NetMRI.

Use the Authentication Services Settings page (Settings icon > General Settings > Authentication Services) to configure authentication server settings.
