Two-Factor Authentication Using RADIUS
By using an RSA RADIUS Server that supports two-factor authentication in conjunction with an
RSA Authentication Manager, CC-SG can make use of two-factor authentication schemes with
dynamic tokens.
In such an environment, the user logs into CC-SG by first typing their username in the Username
field. Then the user types their fixed password, followed by the dynamic token value in the
Password field.
Configuration of the RADIUS server and Authentication manager to enable this is beyond the
scope of this document to provide. Configuration of CC-SG is identical to standard RADIUS
remote authentication described above. CC-SG should be configured to point at the RADIUS
server. Please refer to
Appendix F: Two-Factor Authentication for additional information.
