RADIUS Server

The FortiNDR system supports remote authentication of administrators using RADIUS servers. To use this feature, you must configure the appropriate server entries in the FortiNDR unit for each authentication server in your network.

If you have configured RADIUS support and require a user to authenticate using a RADIUS server, the FortiNDR unit contacts the RADIUS server for authentication. To authenticate with the FortiNDR unit, the user enters a user name and password. The FortiNDR unit sends this user name and password to the RADIUS server. If the RADIUS server can authenticate the user, the FortiNDR unit successfully authenticates the user. If the RADIUS server cannot authenticate the user, the FortiNDR unit refuses the connection.
