  4. If adding the domain, select RADIUS from the Authentication type menu. The RADIUS configuration fields are displayed.
  5. If adding the domain, enter a descriptive name for the authentication domain in the Domain name field. This is the domain name users selects to log in to the Secure Mobile Access portal.
  6. Select the proper Authentication Protocol for your RADIUS server. Choose from PAP, CHAP, MSCHAP, or MSCHAPV2.
  7. Under Primary Radius server, enter the IP address or domain name of the RADIUS server in the RADIUS server address field.
  8. Enter the RADIUS server port in the RADIUS server port field.
  9. If required by your RADIUS configuration, enter an authentication secret in the Secret password field.
  10. Under Backup Radius Server, enter the IP address or domain name of the backup RADIUS server in the RADIUS server address field.
  11. Enter the backup RADIUS server port in the RADIUS server port field.
  12. If required by the backup RADIUS server, enter an authentication secret for the backup RADIUS server in the Secret password field.

  19. Click the name of the layout from the Portal name drop-down menu.
  20. If you selected the Authentication Protocol for your RADIUS server as MSCHAP or MSCHAPV2, you have the option to select Allow password changes. Note that if you enable password changes, you must also deploy the LAN Manager authentication.
  21. Optionally select Enable client certificate enforcement to require the use of client certificates for login. By checking this box, you require the client to present a client certificate for strong mutual authentication. Two additional fields appear:

    • <![CDATA[ ]]>Verify username matches Common Name (CN) of client certificate – Select this check box to require that the user’s account name match their client certificate.
    • Verify partial DN in subject – Use the following variables to configure a partial DN that matches the client certificate:
      • Username: %USERNAME%
      • Domain name: %USERDOMAIN%
      • Active Directory username: %ADUSERNAME%
      • Wildcard: %WILDCARD%
  22. Select Delete external user accounts on logout to delete users who are not logged into a domain account after they log out.
  23. Select Only allow users listed locally to only allow users that are configured locally, but to still use RADIUS to authenticate.
  24. Select Auto-assign groups at login to assign users to a group when they log in. Users logging into RADIUS domains are automatically assigned in real time to Secure Mobile Access groups based on their external RADIUS filter-IDs. If a user’s external group membership has changed, their Secure Mobile Access group membership automatically changes to match the external group membership.
  25. Optionally select One-time passwords to enable the One-time password feature. A drop-down menu appears, in which you can select if configured, required for all users, or using domain name. These are defined as:

    • if configured – Only users who have a One Time Password email address configured uses the One Time Password feature.

  27. Optionally select Always on VPN to allow uninterrupted VPN access. Three additional fields appear:

    • Allow user to disconnect and enter a domain in the E-mail domain: window.
