Configuring WebAuth Parameters

System supports HTTP and HTTPS WebAuth mode. HTTP mode is faster while HTTPS mode is more secure.

To configure WebAuth parameters, take the following steps:

1. On the Navigation pane, click Configure > Network > WebAuth to visit the WebAuth Parameter Configuration page.
2. Click Edit to enter into the edit mode.
3. Configure the WebAuth mode. Click HTTP to enable HTTP WebAuth mode; click HTTPS to enable HTTPS WebAuth mode; click Disable to disable the WebAuth function.
4. Type the port number into the HTTP port or HTTPS port box.

Note: HTTP port number and HTTPS port number could not be the same.

5. Configure Multiple login function. Click Enable or Disable after Multiple login option to enable or disable the function.
   Disable - If selected, only one client is allowed to log in.
   
   • Replace - The user who already logged in will be kicked out by the same user who logs in later. The system will automatically cut the connection to the user who already logged in.
   • Refuse new login - The same user will be prohibited to log in again.
   Enable - If selected, multiple clients can be logged in with the same username simultaneously. And you can specify how many times the same username can be logged in in the Concurrent login number section.
   • Unlimited - The system does not limit how many times the client logs in using one username at the same time.
   • Max number - Type the maximum value. The range is 2 to 1000 times. The default value is 100.
6. Type the client timeout value into Client heartbeat timeout box. When authentication is successful, system will automatically refresh the login page before reaching to the configured timeout value in order to maintain the login status.
7. Specify the time interval to re-authenticate clients. Select the Re-Auth interval check box, and then type the time value.
8. Specify the time interval for users to re-log in. Type the time value into the Forced re-login interval box.
9. Configure Redirect URL function. If configured, when the client sends a HTTP request, the system will automatically redirect the HTTP request to the specified URL. Type the URL into the Redirect URL box. The format of URL should be "http://www.abc.com" or "https://www.abc.com".
