RADIUS Server Setting
Description
Profile Name
Enter a name to identify the server profile (up to 31 characters). The name is case-sensitive and must be unique. Use only letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, and underscores.
Location
Select the scope in which the profile is available. In the context of a firewall that has more than one virtual system (vsys), select a vsys or select
Shared
(all virtual systems). In any other context, you can’t select the
Location
; its value is predefined as Shared (for firewalls) or as Panorama. After you save the profile, you can’t change its
Location.
Administrator Use Only
Select this option to specify that only administrator accounts can use the profile for authentication. For firewalls that have multiple virtual systems, this option appears only if the
Location
is
Shared.
Timeout
Enter an interval in seconds after which an authentication request times out (range is 1–120; default is 3).
Retries
Enter the number of automatic retries following a timeout before the request fails (range is 1–5; default is 3).
