Authentication

In this page, you can manage authentication options for Proxy Server.

To require authentication for using Proxy Server:

  1. Check Require authentication for Proxy Server to prompt users to authenticate. Users will need to log in with their username and password. If your Synology NAS has joined Windows AD or LDAP server directory service and you want to use the directory service account to authenticate for Proxy Server, you will need to enter a fully qualified domain name.
  2. Enter a message in Welcome message. This message will appear as a popup authentication window in the user's browser when Proxy Server prompts the user to authenticate.

To disable authentication:

  • Uncheck Require authentication. Users will no longer need to authenticate for using Proxy Server.
