Local Authentication • The account and password information is stored in the D-View database. Radius Authentication • The information is stored in the Radius server database. • If the account and password information entered is valid, the server accepts the authentication and allows the administrator to manage and monitor the network. Domain Manager In a real environment administrators often need to manage multiple domains of the network. D-View can divide the entire network into many designated domains for administrators to manage different network. An administrator needs to create a domain before working on any topology. When creating a new domain, the administrator should allocate IP address of the workstation. Use Domain Manager to create, delete and modify the domain information. After logging in, D-View, by default, creates a Super Domain and the IP address of the workstation. A super domain is a virtual domain which manages the topologies of all the domains. Refer to Creating a Topology to manually create a topology using Domain Manager. Startup Wizard The Startup Wizard helps you create a Topology. The Wizard will automatically create a new topology based on the information you provide. To create a topology using the Startup Wizard: 1. Click File> Startup Wizard.
