Chapter 14 Configuring AAA Servers and the Local Database
Configuring AAA Server Groups
Common Password A case-sensitive password that is common among users who access
this RADIUS authorization server through this security appliance.
Be sure to provide this information to your RADIUS server
administrator.
Note For an authentication RADIUS server (rather than
authorization) do not configure a common password.
If you leave this field blank, the users username is the password for
accessing this RADIUS authorization server.
Never use a RADIUS authorization server for authentication.
Common passwords or usernames as passwords are less secure than
assigning unique user passwords.
Note Although the password is required by the RADIUS protocol
and the RADIUS server, users do not need to know it.
ACL Netmask Convert How you want the security appliance to handle netmasks received in
downloadable access lists.
Detect automatically: The security appliance attempts to
determine the type of netmask expression used. If it detects a
wildcard netmask expression, it converts it to a standard netmask
expression;
Note Because some wildcard expressions are difficult to detect
clearly, this setting may misinterpret a wildcard netmask
expression as a standard netmask expression.
Standard: The security appliance assumes downloadable access
lists received from the RADIUS server contain only standard
netmask expressions. No translation from wildcard netmask
expressions is performed.
Wildcard: The security appliance assumes downloadable access
lists received from the RADIUS server contain only wildcard
netmask expressions and it converts them all to standard netmask
expressions when the access lists are downloaded.
