IIS: Windows Authentication

In this scenario, shown with IIS 7.5, the name of a user who has already been authenticated by Windows domainor network security is supplied to the Logi application. This is a very secure form of authentication and convenient for users because theydo not have to login twice.

To configure your Logi Application for either type of authentication:

1. Using the IIS Manager utility, select your Logi application, and then select the Authentication feature.
2. Disable the Anonymous Authentication option, as shown above.
3. Enable the Windows Authentication option, as shown above.
4. Exit the feature and restart the appropriate Application Pool.

Now, when the URL for your Logi application is browsed, authorized domain users will not see a login dialog box at all; instead they'll proceed directly into the Logi application. Users who are not authorized will be redirected to an error page.
