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.
Parameters Description
User Name (Required) Enter a user name or select Generate to automatically generate a user name. An
entered username can be up to 64 characters in length.
