Authentication Functions
When an Active Directory server is specified as an authentication server, the following system environment is required.
Software (operating system): | Windows Server 2012*1/Windows Server 2012 R2*1/Windows Server 2016*1/Windows Server 2019*1 |
*1 Users cannot log in with Active Directory authentication if Kerberos Armoring is enabled for KDCrelated policies (group policies). Make sure to disable Kerberos Armoring. | |
Kerberos encryption methods for the Active Directory authentication supported by the current version of User Authentication are as follows.
Encryption method | 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) 256-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) DES (Data Encryption Standard) RC4 |
|
The available encryption methods may vary, depending on the Active Directory settings. Of the available encryption methods, the one with the highest cipher strength is automatically selected. |
When specifying an Active Directory server as an authentication server, use the following ports*1 on the server.
To communicate with a DNS server: | port number 53 |
To communicate with a KDC (Key Distribution Center): | port number 88 |
To communicate with a server for LDAP directory service (can be changed to an arbitrary port number for the LDAP service): | port number 389 |
*1 The above port numbers are default values. These numbers may vary depending on the selected settings. | |
When specifying an LDAP server as an authentication server, the following system environment is required.
Software: | OpenLDAP |
Operating system: | Requirements are pursuant to the product specifications of the LDAP server. |
When specifying an LDAP server as an authentication server, use the following ports*1 on the server.
To communicate with the LDAP server using LDAP (when TLS is enabled): | port number 636 |
To communicate with the LDAP server using LDAP (when TLS is disabled): | port number 389 |
*1 The port numbers can be changed according to the LDAP server settings. | |
Firewall Settings
When specifying IP addresses in firewall settings, up to 16 IP addresses (or ranges of IP addresses) can be specified for both IPv4 and IPv6.
When specifying MAC addresses in firewall settings, up to 100 MAC addresses can be specified.
The exception addresses and exception port numbers that can be used for communication using the sub line and are registered by default are indicated below.
Exception addresses: | 0.0.0.1 to 255.255.255.255 |
Exception port numbers: | 53, 67, 68, 80, 161, 443, 515*, 631*, 3702, 5353, 5357, 5358, 8000*, 8080, 8443*, 9013, 9100*, 10443*, 20010*, 47545 |
* Inbound filter only | |

The algorithms and formats of keys and certificates that can be registered are as follows.

RSA public-key algorithm (key length): | RSA (512 bits*2/1024 bits/2048 bits/4096 bits*2) |
DSA signature algorithm: | SHA-1 |
DSA public-key algorithm (key length): | DSA (1024 bits/2048 bits/3072 bits) |
ECDSA signature algorithm: | SHA-1/SHA-256/SHA-384/SHA-512 |
ECDSA public-key algorithm (key length): | ECDSA (P256/P384/P521) |
Certificate format: | User Signature Keys/Certificates: PKCS#12*3 Keys, Certificates: PKCS#12*4 CA Certificates, S/MIME Certificates: X.509 DER/PEM |
File extension: | User Signature Keys/Certificates: pfx/p12 Keys, Certificates: pfx/p12*4 CA Certificates, S/MIME Certificates: cer/pem |
Maximum number of registerable certificates: | User Signature Keys/Certificates: 100 (one user certificate per user) Keys, Certificates: 6*4 CA Certificates: 150 S/MIME Certificates: 2,000 |
*1 Available only when the key algorithm is 1024 bits or more. *2 Cannot be used for user signatures *3 Available only when installed by using the Remote UI. *4 Used for TLS, IEEE802.1x, IPSec, and device signatures. | |
Registration of Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL)
Up to 50 certificate revocation lists (CRL) can be registered. Note, however, that CRL cannot be registered in the following cases.
The data size of the CRL exceeds 1 MB.
An unsupported signature algorithm is being used.
The number of revoked certificates registered in one CRL file exceeds 1,000.
