Using Manual Configuration
It is simplest to let the IDM Agent run and collect information about Realms,
including RADIUS servers and users in the Realm from the RADIUS server,
but you can also manually define information about the Realm, RADIUS
servers, and users in the IDM GUI.
Defining New Realms
If you have configured a new Realm that uses a RADIUS server on which you
have installed an IDM Agent, you can let the Agent learn the Realm information
automatically, or you can define the Realm using the IDM GUI.
To define a realm:
1. Click the
Add Realm
icon on the toolbar to display the
New Realm
window.
Figure 3-35. Add Realm
2. Enter the information for the Realm:
• Type the Name used to identify the realm.
• In the Alias field, type an alternate name that can be used for the realm.
For example a fully qualified realm Name can be
idm.main.procurve
and
the Alias can be IDM . This is most useful when using IDM with Active
Directory; and you should make sure that the IDM realm alias matches
the Active Directory "NETBIOS" name.
• Type a brief Description of the realm to help identify the realm.
• To set the realm as the default realm, click the Use as default Realm
check box.
The default realm is used when IDM cannot determine the realm for
a RADIUS server or user login.
