110 Firebox X Edge e-Series
About User Licenses
The Firebox® X Edge e-Series comes with a set number of available user licenses. The number of user
licenses puts a limit on how many users can access the Internet at one time. The total number of avail-
able user licenses is set by the Edge model you have and any upgrade licenses you apply.
The Firebox Users page shows the maximum number of user licenses available and how many are in use
at a given time. You use a user license when you send traffic from the trusted or optional network to the
external network.
You do not use a user license when you make connections between computers on the trusted network
or through a VPN tunnel. You also do not use a user license when you make connections from the
trusted network to the optional network, or connections between computers on the optional network.
If you make users authenticate before they connect to the external network, you can make sure that no
user licenses are used by unauthorized computers. If authentication is required, and a user or computer
tries to connect to the external network without authenticating, the Firebox X Edge does not allow the
connection.
About User Authentication
The Firebox® X Edge e-Series uses advanced authentication options to increase network security. You
can configure the Edge as a local authentication server. You can also configure the Edge to use an exist-
ing Active Directory or LDAP authentication server. When you use LDAP authentication, account privi-
leges for users that authenticate to the Active Directory/LDAP server are based on group membership.
User authentication gives options to prevent connections to some resources and to help decrease the
number of user licenses necessary. This section gives information on how a user can authenticate to the
Firebox X Edge, how your users and administrators can close an active session, and which options are
available to customize authentication.
Three levels of Administrative Access are available for the Firebox X Edge:
None: Use this to connect to resources on the external network. A user who uses this access level
cannot see or change the Edge configuration pages.
Read-Only: Use this to see Edge configuration properties and status. A user who uses this access
level cannot change the configuration file.
Full: Use this to see and to change Edge configuration properties. You also can activate options,
disconnect active sessions, restart the Edge, and add or edit user accounts. A user who uses this
access level can change the passphrase for all user accounts.
Setting authentication options for all users
Some authentication options have an effect on all users. To set or change authentication options:
1 To connect to the System Status page, type https:// in the browser address bar, and the IP
address of the Firebox X Edge trusted interface.
The default URL is: https://192.168.111.1
2 From the navigation bar, select Firebox Users > Settings.
The Settings page appears.
