13.1.1.5. Configuring authentication settings in ZMS

Users connecting to ZMS using ZMC must authenticate themselves. The following authentication methods are available:

  • Local accounts: ZMS stores the usernames and passwords in a local database. This is the default authentication method.

  • Local accounts and ZAS authentication: ZMS stores the usernames locally, but receives the authenticattion of users against a ZAS instance. All users successfully authenticating against ZAS and having a local account can connect to ZMS.
