Dear all,
we are using aNetASQappiance as firewall in our company. We have
configured the firewall to authenticate the users before surf on the
Internet and gain priviledges to access any other services (AOL,
FTP,...).

Even if on the guide is described that a cookie is written on the
client browser and checked every time the browser starts (cookie,
session mode), I can't see any cookie in the browser, after the
authentication.

Same problem somewhere? Is there any misconfiguration, or only some
browsers are compatible with this mechanism ?

Thanks,
Emilio

Hello Emilio,

NetASQauthentication is based on IP address, so, if your users
authenticate on the Firewall with an address like 192.168.1.20, this
address will be authenticate for 1, 2 or 4 hours for example.

I don't think thatNetASQfirewall authenticate with a cookie,
but...Maybe i'm not up 2 date on this technology.

Regards,

Julien

The IP-based authentication and authorization system is as you
described, but is not enought. So NetASQ has introduced the cookie
mechanism to prevent "authentication theft" between users.
I'm waiting for a tech contact conference with NetASQ Expert at the
moment.
