Authentication, Users and Admins¶
An authentication method configuration provides the required information to allow SFTPPlus to use a specific method in order to authenticate file transfer accounts and administration account.
Below is the list of supported authentication methods.
Note
Not all authentication method types support authenticating the administrators for the Web Manager service.
The identity configuration defines the users, groups, administrators and roles created as part of the SFTPPlus application.
For these users and administrators the full life-cycle is managed by SFTPPlus.
