Login by re-direction is performed in the following way: user enters URL pages that he/she
intends to open in the browser. WinRoute detects whether the user has already authenticated.
If not, WinRoute will re-direct the user to the login page automatically. After a successful
login, the user is automatically re-directed to the requested page or to the page including the
information where the access was denied.
Note: Users will be redirected to a secured or unsecured web interface according to the fact
which version of web interface is allowed (see chapter
). If both versions are allowed, the
secured web interface will be used.
