Session Logon service

The Session Logon service is located on the Configure Services tab under the Device Services section.

It provides secure access to the application and avoids prompting for credentials multiple times. that is, it provides a single sign-on for ShareScan.

Session Logon is provided as a single point of authentication for the entire workflow. If Session Logon is configured and enabled for a device, you need to log on only once into ShareScan. The logon information is effective for the entire session. You do not have to enter your logon information each time you select a connector during the current session. The ShareScan Manager passes the logon information to the Connector using an internal interface called "Credentials" in Data Publishing.

If you need to access different servers, and the logon credentials are not the same on those servers, the system prompts you to enter logon information, even when Session Logon is enabled.

If you enable Session Logon for the Quick Connect, LDAP/SMTP, or Fax via SMTP connectors, refer to the connector-specific configuration section for information about selecting the authentication type.
