Client Authentication Method Configuration

Introduction

Each client can have multiple client authentication method configurations. This configuration determinates what Level of Authentication, or to be more precise, what Level of Authentication Entry should be used for an authentication dependeds on the source of the request. The source is determinated by the following http headers:

X-Forwarded-For Header
Forwarded Header
HSP_CLIENT_ADDR Header
httpContext.Connection.RemoteIpAddress
REMOTE_ADDR Header

Entry

Each configuration consists of multiple entries that have an order. They will be tested according to the order. Only one will be applied to the authentication request.

Name	Datatype	Mandatory	Example	Description

Name	Datatype	Example	Description
Level of Authentication	Drop Down	Default	Select a configured level of authentication
Level of Authentication Entry	Drop Down	Default	Select an entry out of the configured level of authentication
Regex	REGEX Pattern	.*	The current configuration entry will only apply if this pattern matches. If any entry with a higher order has already matched, it will not apply.
Order	Integer	1	The order of the current entry.

Be aware that multiple entries with the same Regex do not work at the moment as there is no clear distinction between the entries. Order alone does not work as of Version 9.1.
