Authentication mode with username and password via NTLM v2 or LDAP

In this authentication mode, the user enters their login and password on the SoftExpert Suite authentication screen. The system establishes communication with the directory service using the selected protocol (LDAP or NTLM v2) to validate the credentials and confirm the authentication to the system.

The process takes places as follows:

  1. The user provides their login and password on the SoftExpert Suite authentication screen.
  2. The system connects to the directory service using the LDAP or NTLM v2 protocol, as configured.
  3. The credentials provided by the user are sent to the directory service.
  4. The directory service verifies the authenticity of the credentials.
  5. If the credentials are valid, the SoftExpert Suite system grants the authenticated user access to it.

This approach is useful when you want to use credentials stored in the directory service for authentication to SoftExpert Suite. The LDAP or NTLM v2 protocol is used to establish secure communication and validate user credentials.
