HP-UX AAA Server A.07.01 Release Notes

Advanced Policy Engine
Advanced Policy Engine is an updated policy engine that provides extended syntax
for complex policy actions to manipulate RADIUS requests and replies based on attribute
content. Policy modules are invoked using the FSM. These modules can be executed
at any time during the processing of the RADIUS packet. The FSM files and the HP-UX
AAA Server are updated with the following predefined policy definition files, which
can be used to define policies without modifying the FSM:
• Request Ingress Policy
• Reply Egress Policy
• Proxy Egress Policy
• Proxy Ingress Policy
The Advanced Policy Engine is compatible with the legacy Group policy syntax. It
enables quick and easy configuration of a variety of dynamic access control policies,
including combinations of time, date, password expiry, and other user-defined attributes.
For more information on Advanced Policy Engine, see the HP-UX AAA Server A.07.01
Administrator’s Guide .
Fixes Included in the HP-UX AAA Server A.07.01
The following defect fixes are included in the A.07.01 release:
QuIX-PCT ID Description
QXCR1000571844 HP-UX AAA Server A.07.01 supports configuration of the case
matching rule for the local users files.
Prior to the A.07.01 release, there was an inconsistency between
the Server Manager and the server for the case matching rule
for the local users files. The Server Manager supported the case
ignore search only, whereas the server supported case exact
search only. This problem is fixed. The case matching rule for
the local users files for both server and Server Manager can now
be configured.
QXCR1000529400 HP-UX AAA Server A.07.01 supports Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
connection to the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
server. To establish an SSL connection to the LDAP server, the
relevant option in the Server Manager must be enabled.
Prior to the A.07.01 release, the HP-UX AAA Server did not
support the SSL connection to the LDAP server.
QXCR1000742765 HP-UX AAA Server A.07.01 supports the Salted Secure Hash
Algorithm (SSHA) encryption mechanism.
