Configure Session Logon Service (also known as Single Sign-On Extender)

Via the Administration Console, the ShareScan Administrator ensures that you have the necessary access rights to all connectors to be used.

  1. Select the Yes check box next to the Configured setting in the ShareScan Session Logon Service configuration screen of the Administration Console.
  2. In the Select Domain / Tenant / NDS Server dialog, select directory service Type, and specify Domain or specify Tenant when selected Microsoft Entra ID.
  3. Select one of the three options (Session Logon, Bypass session logon (no authentication), Bypass session logon (authenticate user)) in the list next to Session logon mode setting.
  4. Sign in to the authentication application you are using. The Session Logon screen is displayed, with the User name field automatically filled in with the information from the card.
  5. Type your Active Directory password or a valid one-time passcode generated for your Microsoft Entra user into the relevant field.
  6. Use all 6.7.0 workflows without further authentication needs until you press the Logout button. Pressing that button logs you out of ShareScan, thus you can use the device only for copying and print management, until you re-authenticate. If you log out of the authentication application, you cannot use the device until you re-authenticate.

  • The authentication is only valid for connectors using the same Active Directory credentials you supplied on the Session Logon screen, and for connectors that are configured not to ask for credentials. You still have to authenticate separately if your card-based credentials are not the same as your credentials for logging in to the backend service of a connector (for instance, OpenText Content Server).
  • You can test the username/password or username/one-time passcode combination prior to enabling the service either via the built-in ShareScan Simulator, or at the device itself.
