Does NI Web Server Support Client Authentication?

Updated May 1, 2023

Issue Details

I am using NI Web Server for hosting my web application. I would like to test the SSL mutual authentication scenario which involves verifying the client by providing the client CA certificate file to the server. I would like to know whether NI Web Server supports this functionality?

Solution

NI Web Server does not currently support this feature and NI Web Server roadmap does not include a plan for adding this feature in the near future. However, you can implement client authentication via User Roles And Privileges in NI Web Server.

If this feature is essential for your future projects, a feature request can be submitted by contacting your local NI sales office or posting in NI Idea Exchange Forum.
