Note that if you have an environment running, the best practice is to configure the protocol before activating it. In cases where no previous environment is running, the action order doesn't interfere with the operation.
On senhasegura, you can configure and activate the following authentication providers:
- Local.
- LDAP.
- Radius.
- Active Directory (LDAP).
- TACACS.
- OpenID.
- SAML.
Enable a provider
To activate a provider, follow the steps below:
- On senhasegura, in the navigation bar, hover over the Products menu and select Settings.
- In the side menu, select Authentication > Providers.
- All deactivated providers will be listed in red.
- Locate the provider you want, click the Actions button and select Enable.
A success message will appear, and the provider will be listed in black with the status Enabled.
Define the order in which providers are used
To set the order, follow the steps below:
- On senhasegura, in the navigation bar, hover over the Products menu and select Settings.
- In the side menu, select Authentication > Providers.
- All deactivated providers will be listed in red.
- Locate the provider you want, click the Actions button and select Edit.
- On the Authentication provider screen, look for the Order field. This field will show the order in which providers will be used.
The provider will be displayed on the main page with the defined order.
If there are multiple active providers, the authentication order will follow the values specified in the Order field. If a user isn't located at the provider designated as Order 1, senhasegura will try to authenticate them at the provider indicated as Order 2, and so on. Click on the Order column to sort the list according to the configured priority.
For security, set up a primary authentication method and keep Local as the last option for end users.
Disable a provider
To disable a provider, follow these steps:
- On senhasegura, in the navigation bar, hover over the Products menu and select Settings.
- In the side menu, select Authentication > Providers.
- All deactivated providers will be listed in red.
- Locate the provider you want, click the Actions button and select Disable.
A success message appears, and the provider is listed in red, with the status Disable
