# Configure targets with credential injection
|
|
|
|
<EnterpriseAlert product="boundary">This feature requires <a href="https://www.hashicorp.com/products/boundary">HCP Boundary or Boundary Enterprise</a></EnterpriseAlert>
|
|
|
|
The following section provides steps to configure your targets with credential injection.
|
|
Credential injection provides end users with a passwordless experience when they connect to targets by automatically injecting credentials without exposing them to the user.
|
|
|
|
Credential injection is supported for:
|
|
- **SSH targets**: Protocol-aware SSH connections
|
|
- **RDP targets**: Protocol-aware RDP connections (BETA)
|
|
|
|
@include 'alerts/beta.mdx'
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- This feature requires either <a href="https://www.hashicorp.com/products/boundary">HCP Boundary or Boundary Enterprise</a>
|
|
- You must have an existing target available that supports credential injection:
|
|
- **RDP targets**: Must be configured with at least one injected application credential
|
|
- **SSH targets**: Must be configured with at least one injected application credential
|
|
- **TCP targets**: Do not support credential injection
|
|
- You must have configured either a static credential store or a Vault credential store:
|
|
|
|
- To configure a static credential store, refer to [Create static credential stores](/boundary/docs/credentials/static-cred-boundary).
|
|
- To configure a Vault credential store and credential library, refer to [Create Vault credential stores](/boundary/docs/credentials/static-cred-vault).
|
|
|
|
- You must have a static credential saved in your static credential store or Vault credential store. The credential must correspond to the target to which you want to authenticate.
|
|
|
|
- **For RDP targets**: Network Level Authentication (NLA) is supported. Kerberos and NTLMv2 authentication methods are supported for domain-joined workers. NTLMv2 is supported for non-domain-joined workers.
|
|
- **For SSH targets**: Keyboard-interactive authentication is not supported. When you use username-password credentials, ensure that your SSH server is configured to allow password authentication.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Complete the following steps to configure targets with credential injection:
|
|
|
|
<Tabs>
|
|
<Tab heading="UI" group="ui">
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to Boundary.
|
|
2. Select **Orgs** on the navigation pane.
|
|
3. Select your desired org.
|
|
4. Select the project where your target resides.
|
|
5. Click **Targets** on the navigation pane.
|
|
6. Click on your target you want to configure for credential injection.
|
|
7. Click on the **Injected Application Credential** tab.
|
|
8. Click **Managed** and select **Add Injected Application Credential** in the pull down menu.
|
|
9. Do one of the following:
|
|
- **If you are using a static credential store**: Select the credential that corresponds to your target and click **Add Injected Application Credential**.
|
|
- **If you are using a Vault credential store**: Select the credential library that corresponds to your target and click **Add Injected Application Credential**.
|
|
|
|
</Tab>
|
|
<Tab heading="CLI" group="cli">
|
|
|
|
1. Log into Boundary.
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ boundary authenticate
|
|
Please enter the login name (it will be hidden):
|
|
Please enter the password (it will be hidden):
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Add credential injection to target.
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ boundary targets add-credential-sources \
|
|
-id trdp_vO60a7TwpI \
|
|
-injected-application-credential-source csvlt_Xqa6V6QwfM
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Tip>
|
|
|
|
If you are using a static credential store, `brokered-credential-source` refers to the ID of a **credential** in the static credential store.
|
|
|
|
If you are using a Vault credential store, `brokered-credential-source` refers to the ID of a **credential library** in the Vault credential store.
