Hi and welcome,

do you have a AD in your network that the users authenticate to? If yes you can add a connection between the XG and the AD.

I cannot give specifics, there are KBAs on the subject though.

Most of our Customers uses STAS (Software on DC). Some uses SSO Client (Software hidden on Client). Some uses Captive Portal (Web Browser Login). Less uses NTLM. Less uses Clientless User (IP to User match on XG itself).

In V17.5, there will be a Heartbeat Authentication, if you use the Central Endpoint (Called Synchronized User ID).

Pick your Choice.

Hey MBP,

both you and Micheal have referred to v17.5 which implies we should have a beta available?

Hello Dmitry Bykov,

AD is mandatory for STAS, SSO, NTLM. You can user Clientless Authentication method if your user has static IP or as suggested by MBP, if you are using Sophos Endpoint wait for 17.5 and you can user Heartbeat Authentication.

Regards, Ronak.
