Note:
If a RADIUS server is used, the name assigned to a VPNremote Client must be
identical to the one used in the RADIUS server.
A popular tool for managing authentication and accounting for remote access has been Remote
Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS). Use the Policy Manager for RADIUS/ACE if you
want to use one or more RADIUS servers to authenticate remote users. A security gateway can
query up to three RADIUS servers, where two of the servers is recognized as backups.

“shared secret” before they can exchange information. Therefore, the RADIUS
server must be configured with a shared secret for the security gateway.
