Chapter 4. User Authentication Database
4.1. Authentication Database Configuration
Authentication database is a storage device where users' credentials may be
inquired for validity. When a user is associated to an authentication enabled in
Service Zone, the 4ipnet HSG Wireless Hotspot Gateway checks the database to see
if the submitted user ID and password combination exists, in order for the user to
get network access. 4ipnet HSG Wireless Hotspot Gateways support built-in and
external authentication databases.
All the authentication options are listed below:
Built-in Authentication options
Local with user credentials stored in the built-in Local database.
On-Demand with user credentials stored in the built-in On-Demand database.
Guest is an access option that allows users to access networks with any specified
identity token on the login page.
External Authentication Options
These options use external servers to implement the authentication process. 4ipnet
HSG Wireless Hotspot Gateways support the most common external authentication
options: RADIUS.
