Type the path and name of the certificate file in the SSL Certificate File field, orclick Browse and go to the location of the file and select it.4. Click Upload. The certificate is installed on the ePDU.Setting Up External User AuthenticationFor security purposes, users attempting to log into the ePDU must be authenticated.You can use the local database of user profiles in the ePDU, or you can use theLightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) or the Remote Access Dial−In UserService (RADIUS) protocol.By default, the ePDU is configured for local authentication. If you stay with thismethod, you do not have to do anything other than create user profiles for eachauthorized user. If you prefer to use an external LDAP or RADIUS server, you have toprovide the system with information about the server.Keep in mind that you still need to create user profiles for users who areauthenticated externally. This is because the user profile determines the user groupto which the user belongs, and the user group determines the user’s system andoutlet permissions.
