RSA ACE/Server Conﬁguration Checklist

If you are using an RSA ACE/Server as a RADIUS server, check the following items

before making your initial connection:

■ Ensure that the host agent in the RSA ACE/Server is set up to send a node

secret. In version 5.0, this is done by leaving the SENT Node secret box

unchecked. If the RSA ACE/Server fails to send a node secret to the agent, then

a node veriﬁcation failure message will be written to the RSA ACE/Server log.

■ If you are using RSA SecurID tokens, then ensure that the token is synchronized

with the RSA ACE/Server.
