There are two authentication types available:
1) Using ESET authentication server
Zone authentication searches for a specific server in the network and uses asymmetric encryption (RSA) to authenticate
the server. The authentication process is repeated for each network your computer connects to. Click Setup... and
specify a server name, server listening port and a public key that corresponds to the private server key (see section Zone
authentication – Server configuration). The server name can be entered in the form of an IP address, DNS or NetBios
name. The server name can be followed by a path specifying the location of the key on the server (e.g., server_name_/
directory1/directory2/authentication). Enter multiple servers, separated by semicolons, to serve as alternate servers if the
first one is unavailable.
The public key can be a file of one of the following types:
PEM encrypted public key (.pem)
This key can be generated using the ESET Authentication Server (see section Zone authentication – Server
configuration).
Encrypted public key
Public key certificate (.crt)
To test your settings, click the Test button. If authentication is successful, a Server authentication successful message will
appear. If authentication is not configured properly, one of the following error messages will appear:
Server authentication failed. Maximum time for authentication elapsed.
The authentication server is inaccessible. Check the server name/IP address and/or verify the Personal firewall settings
of the client as well as the server section.
An error has occurred while communicating with the server.
The authentication server is not running. Start the authentication server service (see section Zone authentication –
