The Sonus SBC 1000/2000 system
system supports multiple forms of authentication, which authentication method is used depends on the prototype of credentials presented by the user when attempting
to login, either one of the following:
...
If the user presents credentials in either the user@domain or domain\username format, the Sonus SBC 1000/2000 attempts
attempts to authenticate the user against Active Directory. If the user is authenticated belongs to a
group mapped with a Sonus SBC 1000/2000 access level, then they are given access and granted permissions. If the user fails to authenticate, they are denied access and no further attempt to authenticate the user is made.
...
If the user presents credentials in the simple alphanumeric format, the Sonus SBC 1000/2000 first
first attempts to authenticate the user against the
Local User Table. If the user's credentials are not found or the user's password does not match, authentication is then attempted against the RADIUS server with respect to the
RADIUS User's class mapping with Sonus the SBC 1000/2000 access level.
