|
|
|
|
The user manager of OPNsense allows for controlling access to the different
|
|
part (pages) of the configurator as well as controlling access to particular
|
|
services on a per user bases.
|
|
|
|
Authentication
|
|
--------------
|
|
OPNsense offers integration with external servers for services that require user
|
|
authentication. These services include:
|
|
|
|
* IPsec
|
|
* OpenVPN
|
|
* Captive Portal
|
|
* Proxy
|
|
|
|
Integrated into OPNsense are the **Local User Database** and **Voucher Server**.
|
|
The Voucher Server is intended to be used with the Captive portal.
|
|
|
|
External service currently supported are:
|
|
|
|
* LDAP (OpenLDAP, MS Active Directory, Novell eDirectory)
|
|
* Radius
|
|
|
|
Authorization
|
|
-------------
|
|
Besides authenticating, user authorization to access parts of the configuration
|
|
can also be setup with an external server, but in order to grant the appropriate
|
|
privileges to the users they need to be imported in OPNsense's local user manager.
|
|
This way one can validate a user against its externally stored password and have
|
|
a fine grained control over the configuration pages that user may access.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Users, Groups & Privileges
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
When using the local user manager, either stand alone or on combination with an
|
|
external authentication server one can define groups to combine a set of privileges
|
|
for a specific user group. A user should be an individual, a group needs to be
|
|
specific in such a way that anyone of that group can be granted the same access
|
|
rights, called privileges.
|
|
|
|
Authentication services
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Authentication services can be configured using the settings in :menuselection:`System --> Access --> Servers`.
|
|
This includes both local accounts and remote authentication.
|
|
|
|
By default, OPNsense GUI login will use local accounts. This can be changed, however,
|
|
by going to :menuselection:`System --> Settings --> Administration`, scrolling down to the "Authentication" group,
|
|
and changing the 'Server' option.
|
|
|
|
Local account configuration
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Settings for handling login via local accounts can be set by going to :menuselection:`System --> Access --> Servers`,
|
|
then clicking the 'Edit' icon (a pencil) for 'Local Database'. Here, you can improve security of
|
|
local user accounts by setting password length and complexity constraints.
|
|
|
|
An overview of available settings:
|
|
|
|
===================================== ============================================================================================
|
|
**Policy** Enable password policy constraints.
|
|
**Duration** [Policy] Password duration, optionally define how often the user should change his or her password.
|
|
**Length** [Policy] Minimum password length to require.
|
|
**Complexity** [Policy] Enforce password complexity checks.
