Agent Host Configuration

To facilitate communication between the Cisco IOS Router and the RSA Authentication Manager / RSA SecurID Appliance, an Agent Host record must be added to the RSA Authentication Manager database and RADIUS Server database. The Agent Host record identifies the Cisco IOS Router within its database and contains information about communication and encryption.

To create the Agent Host record, you will need the following information.

•Hostname

•IP Addresses for all network interfaces

•RADIUS Secret, which must match the RADIUS Secret on the Cisco IOS VPN Router.

When adding the Agent Host Record, you should configure the Cisco IOS Router as a Communication Server. This setting is used by the RSA Authentication Manager to determine how communication with the Cisco IOS Router will occur.

Note: Hostnames within the RSA Authentication Manager / RSA SecurID

Appliance must resolve to valid IP addresses on the local network.

Please refer to the appropriate RSA Security documentation for additional information about Creating, Modifying and Managing Agent Host records.
