Certificate-based authentication scheme

Fudo Enterprise allows authenticating with certificate, complied with PIV standards.

In order to configure authentication method Certificate, proceed as follows:

  1. Select Settings > System
  2. In the General tab, under the User CA certificates section upload a file with CA certificate(s) in PEM format.

Note

Fudo Enterprise supports a multiple-domain configuration. For such configuration, the administrator has to upload a PEM file that consists of root/intermediate certificates from all the CAs. The Subject field should be unique for each user.
