Adding a Validation server

Complete the following procedures to create a Validation server.
You create a Validation server in one of the following ways:
  • Application configuration: Select from a pre-defined configuration on the Validation server page. The options display only the supported authentication modes for the selected vendor. The vendor details and supported authentication modes are pre-defined by VIP Enterprise Gateway. Symantec recommends using this method to configure your Validation server.
  • Custom configuration: If your vendor list is not listed in the pre-defined list or you need to customize your two-factor authentication deployments based on specific requirements, choose
    Custom configuration
    . You are prompted to enter configuration information for your Validation server manually.
  1. To create a Validation server from a pre-defined configuration or create a custom Validation server:
  2. From the
    RADIUS Validation Server
    page of the
    Validation
    tab, click
    Add Server
    .
  3. You are prompted to select a pre-defined configuration, based on common application vendors. Select the following settings to set up a new Validation server for one of these vendors and click
    Continue
    .
    If your vendor is not listed or you need to customize your two-factor authentication deployments based on specific requirements, choose
    Custom configuration
    instead of selecting application values. In either case, you have the opportunity to further configure the Validation server later.
