Terminal Server - User and Administration Guide
5.1 User
Authentication/
Logging
40
To improve access security, the Terminal Server has a
mechanism for authenticating users before allowing them
access. This is accomplished by prompting the user for a
Login ID and a password. The Terminal Server will then
attempt to login to a specified host using that ID and
password. If successful, the user is authenticated and
allowed access. Otherwise, the call is dropped. The
Terminal Server will also log events such as logins, logouts,
connections and disconnections, and power ups. This
feature is enabled when you set the Authentication field to
host in the Port Setup Menu.
The following is the host authentication setup (via the Access
section of the Administration Menu ):
