Introduction
Use the Authentication pages to set up system security and to provide specific users with access to appropriate
network services. This section describes the authentication parameters. The access server uses static and/or
RADIUS authentication to decide which dial-in users can access the system (refer to A,
“Supported RADIUS
Attributes” on page 300 for a full list of RADIUS attributes).
Displaying the Authentication window
Do the following:
1. Click on Authentication under the Configuration Menu (see figure 13 ).
