Methods

The methods view under the user menu is used to configure which Authentication Methods a specific user is entitled to use. By default, no authentication methods are enabled for a user.

In methods view (Figure 3) you can configure user specific authentication methods. In the example shown, the user Administrator can only log in using the Password method. All other methods are disabled.

Authentication methods can also be enabled from the authentication methods screen – for example, by ticking the enabled box when a user password is set within the Password method settings.
