Click Apply to save your settings. DC Agent If you set up an open network, you would want to allow unauthenticated users to surf anonymously. For a secure network, you would use a more restrictive access policy for unauthenticated users and a less restricted access policy for authenticated users. Without the use of the DC agent, any Active Directory (AD) domain user surfs anonymously until providing credentials to the UTM in order to proceed past a blocked web activity. With use of the DC agent, an AD domain user is immediately known to the UTM when he or she is authenticated on a DC server on which the DC agent is installed, allowing a single sign-on (SSO). If the AD authenticates through a domain controller (DC) server that runs Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 (SP1) or Windows Server 2008, you can use the ProSecure DC Agent software to authenticate AD domain users.
