Selective authentication lets you determine whether users requesting Internet access from a specific client machine (identified by IPv4 or IPv6 address) are prompted to provide their logon credentials via the browser. This can be used to:
*
Establish different authentication rules for a machine in a public kiosk than for employees of the organization supplying the kiosk.
*
Ensure that users of an exam-room computer in a medical office are always identified before getting Internet access.
Machines with special user identification settings applied are listed on the Settings > General > User Identification page. Click Exceptions to establish specific user identification settings for some machines in your network, or see if special settings have been defined for a specific machine.
To add a machine to the list, click Add, and then see Defining exceptions to user identification settings for further instructions.
When you are finished adding machines or network ranges to the list, click OK. Changes are not implemented until you click Save and Deploy.
