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. The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. 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.
