To use Active Directory Authentication, you must match the current time on the server in which Active Directory is running with the machine (and the computer to log in with).
When using Server Authentication + Local Device Authentication, make sure you register the Administrator to the authentication server (Active Directory or LDAP server). If you do not register the Administrator, some settings and management functions may not be available, depending on the application. The registration method differs depending on your system environment.
If you are using Active Directory Authentication, the user that belongs to the "Canon Peripheral Admins" group on Active Directory is the Administrator for Server Authentication + Local Device Authentication by default. (You can also set other groups to the Administrator.) Follow the instructions in the manual for Active Directory to create the "Canon Peripheral Admins" group, and then register the Administrator.
If the default password is being used, the screen for changing the password is automatically displayed for security purposes. Change the password. (See "Managing User Information.")

IMPORTANT
|
This version of User Authentication is compatible with both 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and DES (Data Encryption Standard) as the Kerberos encryption type to be used when performing Server Authentication + Local Device Authentication. The encryption type automatically switches according to the Active Directory settings. AES is used in an environment that supports both encryption types.
If you use Windows Server 2003 SP2/R2 SP2 for the Active Directory, only the IPv4 communication protocol is supported (IPv6 cannot be used).

Internet Explorer (64-bit) cannot be used in combination with the Java SE Runtime Environment (64-bit) in Windows 8 (64-bit).
For information on obtaining the Java Runtime Environment or Java 2 Platform Standard Edition, see the Oracle Web site.
You must use the user logon name (pre-Windows 2000) registered in Active Directory in order to enter a user name for using Active Directory Authentication.
You can use only alphanumeric characters for using Active Directory Authentication. You cannot use symbols (\ / : * ? l <> [ ] ; , = + . "), or spaces. You can log in only if you use valid characters.
When using the Local Device Authentication system, you can use only alphanumeric characters for the user name.

NOTE

Port number is a default value. If you change the settings, the port number is different. (See "Settings Common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6.")
