Configuring AD Authentication

Introduction

This section uses the OneAccess user portal as an example to describe how to configure the AD authentication function. After configuring the AD authentication provider in OneAccess, you can refer to this section to configure AD authentication for logging in to each application system.

Prerequisites

• You have permissions to access the administrator portal.
• You have configured the AD authentication provider in OneAccess by referring to Configuring an AD Authentication Provider.

Logging In to the User Portal Through AD Authentication

1. On the user portal login page, select AD, enter an AD account and password, and click Login.

2. After login, go to the administrator portal, choose Users > Organizations and Users, and view the automatically created user.
3. If the AD user is not associated with any OneAccess user and you have set No User Associated to Failed (see Figure 3), the login will fail. To ensure successful login, create a user with the same name as the AD user in OneAccess.
