The names used to represent the authentication methods can be customised (both the names presented during authentication, and the names displayed in the management console).

To customise these names you will need to make modifications to files stored in subfolders of the DualShield installation directory.

ADMINISTRATORS CONSOLE CUSTOMISATION

Customising the Authentication Method Names displayed in the DualShield Administrators Console (DAC);


PortalSubfolderFile
DualShield Access Console (DAC)\tomcat\dualapp\das5\WEB-INF\grails-app\i18nmessages.properties

Some examples of parameters that can be customised;

Authentication MethodParameter
One-Time Passwordmethod.otp
On-Demand Passwordmethod.odp
Grid Cardmethod.grid.card
Computer Fingerprintmethod.computer.fingerprint
Computer DeviceIDmethod.computer.deviceid
Static Passwordmethod.static.pass
Emergency Codemethod.ecode
Question and Answermethod.qna

As an example to replace the default name for the authentication method "One-Time Password" you would edit the file "C:\Program Files\Deepnet DualShield\tomcat\dualapp\das5\WEB-INF\grails-app\i18n";

Replacing the text "One-Time Password" with your required customisation will cause the management console to replace the text when authentication methods are listed in the management console.

In the example below I have changed the displayed names for the authentication methods "On-Demand Password" and "One-Time Password";

SINGLE SIGN-ON CUSTOMISATION

Customising the Authentication Method Names during Authentication (Single-Sign-On);

PortalSubfolderFile
Single Sign-On (SSO)\tomcat\ssoapp\sso\WEB-INF\classes\languageslanguage.properties

Some examples of parameters that can be customised;

Authentication MethodParameter
One-Time PasswordAuthMethod_OTP
On-Demand PasswordAuthMethod_OTPoD
Grid CardAuthMethod_GRID
Computer FingerprintAuthMethod_PCDNA
Mobile Device FingerprintAuthMethod_MOBDNA
Static PasswordAuthMethod_SPASS
Emergency CodeAuthMethod_ECODE
Question and AnswerAuthMethod_QNA

As an example to replace the default name for the authentication method "One-Time Password" and "On-Demand Password" you would edit the file "language.properties" in the folder "C:\Program Files\Deepnet DualShield\tomcat\ssoapp\sso\WEB-INF\classes\languages" (this assumes DualShield has been installed in the default directory of "C:\Program Files\Deepnet DualShield");

After this change has been made the authentication methods will now present authentication methods during logon using the customised descriptions;
