You can use the following procedures to set up and disable authentication from the Provider Policies Results pane of the console.

  Normally, you set up authentication when you add a provider policy through the New Provider Policy Wizard.

  3. Select the Provider Pipeline tab.

  4. Make sure the Authentication check box is selected.

  5. Select the authentication level from the drop-down list.

  6. If you choose Anonymous Authentication, specify a User Name (all usage information is logged with this user name) and enter a password and verify it.

  7. Click Apply or OK.
