Security

Authentication of Remote

Protocol: CHAP, PAP or NONE

Use this field to identify the authentication protocol to be used by this Adit unit when authenticating remote devices.

Local Security Server

Use these fields to identify the local server that is used to authenticate remote devices. This field is only necessary if you are using either the <RADIUS> or <TACACS+> security authentication method. If you are not using either of these security methods, the Adit unit will respond to the authentication requests of remote devices and will accept or reject them based on their validity.

Type

Use the [SPACEBAR] to choose the security authentication method that you are using.

<None> Use this setting if the local Adit unit will be used to authenticate remote devices. Please note that you may not use the <None> setting if the Security Server field for a remote device has been set to <External Server>

<RADIUS> Will set the server to use the RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In Service) protocol. RADIUS is a client/server-based authentication software system.

<TACACS+> Will set the server to use the TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access Control System) protocol. TACACS+ provides services of authentication, authorization and accounting independently.

Address

Enter the IP Address of the local server that will be used during the authentication process. If <None> was selected in the <Type> field, this field will be disabled.

Password

Enter the password of the local server that will be used during the authentication process. You must make sure that the password entered into the server is the same as the value entered here or the authentication process will fail. If <None> was selected in the <Type> field, this field will be disabled.
