Mobile User Settings

Administration for both mobile device users and Corente Clients is done using the Mobile User Settings section of the User Remote Access tab.

On the User Remote Access tab, in the Mobile User Settings section, fill out the following options to allow Mobile User access:

  • Allow Mobile User Access to the Network: Select this option so that this Corente Services Gateway will serve as a host for Mobile Users.

  • Serve DNS to Mobile Users: All Mobile Users that connect to this Corente Services Gateway are served IP addressing information by the Corente Services Gateway. This option enables you to select whether or not to pass DNS Server IP addresses with the IP addresses. When this box is selected, Mobile Users will be served the DNS server addresses that you supplied in the Network tab of this Locationform.

  • Inactive Session Timeout (min): Enter the number of minutes that a Mobile User will remain logged into the Corente Services Gateway while the connection is idle before the Mobile User is automatically logged out.

  • Shared Secret: Enter the shared secret that will be used by the Mobile Users to connect to the Corente Services Gateway. This shared secret will be shared by all the Mobile Users that connect to this Corente Services Gateway.

  • Reserved Address Range: Enter the address range that will be served by the Corente Services Gateway to the Mobile Users. The address range listed here must have at least one more address than the number of Mobile Users connecting to this Location gateway.

  • Authentication Type: Specifies one of the following types of authentication:

    Local Authentication (Password)

    Configures the Corente Services Gateway to authenticate Mobile Users authenticate with user names and passwords. You create the user names and passwords in App Net Manager. The Corente Services Control Point (SCP) then handles authentication and stores the credentials.

    External Authentication (RADIUS)

    Configures the Corente Services Gateway to authenticate Mobile Users against a RADIUS server on the LAN.

    External Authentication (LDAP)

    Configures the Corente Services Gateway to authenticate Mobile Users against a Microsoft Active Directory server on the LAN.

    Important

    Corente Cloud Services Exchange supports only RADIUS servers or Microsoft Active Directory servers as external authentication sources for Mobile Users.
