How to configure browsers for silent authentication
Silent authentication applies to Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) and certain RADIUS authentication methods. For silent authentication to work when logging in to the Privileged Access ServiceAdmin Portal, a few browser configuration tasks may be necessary.
- Firefox: Either set
network.negotiate-auth.allow-non-fqdn
to True or add the connector host name to thenetwork.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris
list of trusted sites (see Configuring Firefox to allow silent authentication). - Internet Explorer: Make sure Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) is enabled, and then in most cases silent authentication works without further configuration. Additional details are included here in case you need to make some configuration changes (see Configuring Internet Explorer security zones).
- Safari: In most cases, silent authentication works without further configuration. Additional details are included here in case you need to make some configuration changes (see Configuring Google Chrome on Windows for silent authentication or Configuring Apple Safari on a Mac for silent authentication).
- Chrome and Safari: In most cases, silent authentication works without further configuration. Additional details are included here in case you need to make some configuration changes (see Configuring Google Chrome on Windows for silent authentication).
Note: Silent authentication works as installed with Windows Firewall. If you are using a different firewall system, be sure to allow traffic on the port specified in Centrify Connectors in Settings in Admin Portal. By default, this port is 80.
