Can I Change the User Authentication Mode of the Desktop?
The user authentication mode cannot be changed for purchased desktops.
If the authentication mode of the purchased desktop is incorrect, purchased a desktop in another project with no desktop and configure the required user authentication mode for the new desktop. Exercise caution when purchasing desktops by referring to the following description.
- If the enterprise does not deploy the Windows AD for user authentication, select No when purchasing desktops. That is, the desktop uses the account authentication system of Huawei for user authentication.
- If the enterprise has an existing unified AD for user authentication and the desktop also needs to use this authentication mode, select Yes when purchasing the desktop.
