Managing the Internal Database

You can create entries in the controller’s internal database, to use to authenticate clients. The internal database contains a list of clients along with the password and default role for each client. When you configure the internal database as an authentication server, client information in incoming authentication requests is checked against the internal database.

Configuring the Internal Database

By default, the internal database in the master controller is used for authentication. You can choose to use the internal database in a local controller by entering the CLI command aaa authentication-server internal use-local-switch. If you use the internal database in a local controller, you need to add clients on the local controller.

.

Table 53 defines the required and optional parameters used in the internal database.
