Authentication Scheme Dialog—RADIUS Server Template

Before you can assign a RADIUS Server authentication scheme to a realm, you must configure the scheme in the Authentication Scheme Dialog.

SiteMinder supports the RADIUS protocol by using the Policy Server as the RADIUS server and an NAS client as the RADIUS client. RADIUS Agents allow the Policy Server to communicate with the NAS client devices. In the RADIUS Server authentication scheme the Policy Server acts as a RADIUS server attached to the SiteMinder protected network.

This scheme accepts user name and password as credentials. Multiple instances of this scheme can be defined. This scheme does not interpret RADIUS attributes that may be returned by the RADIUS server in the authentication response.
