IFWXAuthenticatedUser interface

Applies to: desktop apps only

The IFWXAuthenticatedUser interface represents a single authenticated user. This may be a Windows user or a non-Windows user. The IFWXAuthenticatedUser interface inherits from the IFWXImpersonator interface.

The IFWXAuthenticatedUser interface is the product of asynchronous firewall authentication, and is returned by IFWXAuthenticationCompletion::CompleteAsyncAuthentication. For example, if the authentication completion results from a call to the IFWXRadiusAuthenticator::AuthenticateRadiusUser, IFWXAuthenticatedUser will represent a RADIUS authenticated user.
