Authentication

Authentication is the process of verifying the identity claimed by a system entity. Often that entity is a user, but in some situations the entity is a service. TrueSight Network Automation supports the following authentication mechanisms:

  • Local
  • Active Directory
  • LDAP
  • RADIUS
  • TACACS/TACACS+
  • SAML 2.0
  • Helix Single Sign-On

Details needed for these authentication mechanisms are described on the Installing-the-application-server-on-Windows and Installing-the-application-server-on-Linux pages.
