two basic ways:
Local Authentication, using information from its data store
Back-end Authentication, asking a RADIUS server or LDAP back-end system for verification of information
The exact authentication process used by the aXsGUARD Identifier varies depending on settings in the applicable
Policy, DIGIPASS User account and DIGIPASS records. The diagram below shows the basic authentication process.
