Configure an authenticated Airwall Agent session

An authenticated Airwall Agent session requires users to authenticate before the Airwall Agent can communicate in an overlay network. The authentication is based on a user’s Conductor login credentials.

Note: Authenticated Airwall Agent sessions expire after 15 minutes of inactivity, or within 24 hours of user log in.

To configure authenticated Airwall Agent sessions:

  1. Go to Airwalls and select an Airwall Agent.
  2. Select Edit Settings.
  3. Under Airwall agent authentication, check Require authenticated Airwall session
  4. Select Update Settings.
  5. Point your web browser to a secure (HTTPS) web URL using one of the remote device IP addresses.
  6. In the HTTPS login page, enter the Airwall Agent Conductor username and password.
    Note: If the Airwall Agent is a member of two or more overlay networks, select the overlay networks in which the Airwall Agent will participate.
Once authenticated, the Airwall Agent participates in the selected overlay network.
Note: To activate an Airwall Agent in a different overlay network, you must reboot the Airwall Agent, re-authenticate, and select the new overlay network.
