Setting Up Logins

IF30 Fixed Reader User's Manual
To ensure login security for configuring or maintaining the IF30,
you should use a password server or change the default user name
and password.
A password server is typically an embedded authentication server
(EAS) or other RADIUS server. To use a password server, you
must have a password server on the network that contains the
user name/password database. On the IF30, you need to enable
RADIUS for login authorization.
When a user attempts to log in to the IF30, the user must enter a
user name and password. This login is sent to the RADIUS
server, which compares the login to its list of authorized logins. If
a match is found, the user can log in to the IF30 with read/write
privileges.
If no RADIUS server is available when the user tries a login and
the Allow Service Password check box is checked, the server
checks the service password. If the login does not match the
service password, the login fails.
For help, see the next section, "Configuring the IF30 to Use a
Password Server."
If you do not want to use a password server, you should change
the default login user name and password, and create a read-only
password. For help, see "Changing the Default Login" on
page 35.
