Deploy SiteMinder in a RADIUS Environment

SiteMinder can be setup to provide authentication services in a variety of different RADIUS environments:

• A homogeneous environment composed of only one NAS device, such as a Cisco RAS, and only one user directory. This environment is discussed in How to Authenticate Users in a Homogeneous RADIUS Environment.
• A heterogeneous environment composed of multiple NAS devices, such as a Checkpoint firewall and a Cisco RAS, and one user directory. This environment is discussed in Authenticate Users in Heterogeneous RADIUS Environments with One User Directory.
• A heterogeneous environment composed of multiple NAS devices, such as a Checkpoint firewall and a Cisco RAS, and multiple user directories. This environment is discussed in How Authenticating Users in Heterogeneous RADIUS Environments with Two User Directories Works.
