Using Active Directory

Notes:

•

Only one Kerberos configuration file can be saved on the printer memory. This configuration file can

apply to multiple realms and Kerberos Domain Controllers.

Administrators must anticipate the different types of authentication requests the Kerberos server might

receive, and configure the configuration file to handle the requests.

•

Uploading another configuration file or updating the Kerberos settings overwrites the saved

configuration file.

•

Active Directory relies on an external server for authentication. If the server is down, then users are not

able to access the printer using Active Directory.
