Configure user authentication for Airwall Agents and Airwall Linux Agents

You can configure user authentication for Airwall Agents and the Windows Airwall Linux Agent by requiring a username or password before they can connect to an Overlay.
Note:

Linux servers don’t support any form of user authentication.

Note: For user authentication compatibility and functionality, make sure your Conductor and all Airwall Agents and Airwall Linux Agents are on the latest version (v3.0.3).
  1. In the Conductor, on an Airwall Agent configuration page, select Edit Settings, and check the Require authenticated Airwall session. Select Update Settings.

    Note: If you do not see the Edit Settings, you do not have permissions to edit that Airwall Agent.
  2. Connect the Airwall Agent or Airwall Linux Agent to the Conductor.
  3. Verify that:
    • Logging in requires you enter Conductor or LDAP credentials.
    • The Airwall Agent or Airwall Linux Agent has access to the Overlay.
  4. You can monitor user connections from the information pages in the People tab in Conductor.

    You also have the ability to end the session on-demand as an administrator.
