User Authentication The Fiery user authentication feature allows Fiery to: • Authenticate user names. • Authorize actions based on the user's privileges. Fiery can authenticate users who are: • Domain-based: users defined on a corporate server and accessed via LDAP. • Fiery-based: users defined on the Fiery. User Authentication is featured wherever a user may gain access to Fiery. Fiery authenticates user names in the following manner: • By adhering to network authentication protocols, Fiery is positioned as a true network technology that is readily accepted by even the most demanding MIS/IT organizations. WebTools\Docs • Users can log in to the Docs functionality in WebTools as long as their user names/passwords meet one of the following conditions: • A local Fiery user is part of the Fiery's contact list (whether or not is the user is currently part of a Fiery group). • A domain user name is included in a current Fiery group. • Domain user is part of an LDAP group included in a current Fiery group. Once the user name/password is authenticated, Fiery allows the user access to functionality corresponding with the user's privileges, as defined in Fiery groups. • Ensures a more secure workflow by enforcing authentication. • Easier administration and increased security by creating a common and centralized list of users and privileges and adhering to network authentication protocols. • Wider security offered by this standard feature for password protected mailboxes. • Tighter budget control over user access (e.g., color vs. black and white) for billing and user-based cost allocation. Fiery Print Driver • The Fiery Driver for Windows (both PS and PCL versions) includes user name information with the print job. The EFI Driver (Windows) supports the concept of both domain/LDAP user and the local user, even if Use Network Login is not selected. This is through the following methods: • If the user name string entered is 'ArthurM' - Fiery will assume this is a local user. Fiery will, by default, check the local contacts list. • If the username string entered is 'domain\username' (such as 'cisco\arthurm') -Fiery will assume this is a domain or LDAP user. Fiery will, by default, validate the user against the LDAP server. 6
