Configuring Security and Authentication

Chapter 7 67

Permit monitor only mode

• Enable: A user with “Monitor" permissions can only connect to the port

in read only mode any time.

• Disable: A user with “Monitor" permissions can connect if a read/write

user has a connection to the port. A read only session is automatically

disconnected if the main user (read/write session) disconnects from the

port.

Authentication

The Digi CM supports multiple methods of user authentication. The following

methods are supported: Local, TACACS+, RADIUS, LDAP, and Kerberos. The

type of authentication protocol you use is dependent on your environment.

Configuring Authentication Methods for Port Access

You can choose between having a single authentication method, such as

RADIUS, or an authentication method where a Local authentication service is

used in addition to the RADIUS, LDAP, TACACS+ server, or Kerberos. These

options are listed when you configure the Digi CM for authentication. To

configure a Digi CM for authentication, do the following:

1. Access the web interface.

2. Under the Serial port heading, choose Configuration.

3. Choose All or an Individual port >

Authentication.

4. From the drop down menu, choose an authentication method. A

configuration screen for that particular authentication method is displayed.
