supported databases via the SQL Access AATV and database client connector
libraries.

access devices. EAP methods supported include PEAP, TTLS, TLS, LEAP, GTC,
MSCHAPv2, and MD5.

concurrent logins to limit simultaneous sessions. Customizable shared session
management for multiple HP-UX AAA Servers is supported via the SQL Access
feature.

Address assignment.

v2, and HP-UX 11i v3 operating systems. This feature also supports RADIUS
communication over IPv6 transports with HP-UX 11i v2 and HP-UX 11i v3
operating systems.
• SNMP Support: Effectively integrate and manage HP-UX AAA Servers with
SNMP compliant network management tools.
• LDAP Integration: Supports user profile storage and authentication using LDAP
Version 3–compliant directories with request load balancing and failover.
• Web-based Administration: The Server Manager web-based administration utility
provides management and configuration of multiple HP-UX AAA Servers sharing
a common configuration set.
• Secure LAN Advisor: Utility inside the Server Manager administration tool to
help plan, configure, and deploy authenticated LAN access via 802.1x and EAP.
