Setting up authentication

Client authentication verifies that a keypad user is authorized to connect to the security system. This user is not a person, rather it represents the Niagara Touch display.
Prerequisites: You are working in Workbench connected to the station that manages the display device. The station has an AuthenticationService in the Services folder.
  1. Expand Config > Services > AuthenticationService > AuthenticationSchemes.
    By default, this station comes with one ClientCertAuthScheme.

  2. If you need a second scheme, open the clientCertAuth palette and drag the ClientCertAuthScheme component from the palette to the Authentication Schemes node under the AuthenticationService.
  3. Double-click SSO Configuration (this component is at the same level as Authentication Schemes under the AuthenticationService).
    The SSO Configuration AX Property Sheet opens.

  4. Set Auto Attempt Single Sign-On to true, confirm that Ignore Auto SSO if User Cookie Present is set to false and click Save.
The next step associates the exported certificate with the display user.
