Configuring web service card validation

Use web service validation when validating users through an LDD server.

1. From the Embedded Web Server, navigate to the configuration page for the application:

   Apps > Card Authentication > Configure

2. From the User Authentication section, set Card Validation to Web Service.

3. Select Verify Certificate to validate all connections to the server. If Verify Certificate is not selected, then CA will not be validated.

4. In the Verification Mode menu, select either chain or peer.

   Note: The default value is chain.

5. Upload the server SSL certificate to connect securely to the server.

6. In the CheckHosts field, type the additional host names (other than the default server URL) to verify the entries in the certificate. Use commas to separate multiple host names.

   Note: By default, that white list contains just the server URL. Type additional host names in the CheckHosts field to include them in the white list.

7. From the Web Service Settings section, type the URL of the LDD server.

8. If necessary, adjust the server connection timeout.

9. Set the registration interface. Select either of the following:

   • Version 1—Only the badge ID and user ID are shown in the Badge Information dialog box.

   • Version 2—The following are shown in the Badge Information dialog box:

     • Badge ID

     • User ID

     • IP address

     • Host name

10. Set the lookup interface. To record when and where the badge was last used, select Version 2.

11. Click Save.
