Add a RADIUS Dictionary

Add a RADIUS dictionary when you add a RADIUS device that does not already have a dictionary file in RSA Authentication Manager.

Procedure 

1. Log on to the Operations Console on the RSA Authentication Manager primary instance.

2. Click Deployment Configuration > RADIUS Servers.

3. If prompted, enter the Super Admin User ID and password, and click OK.

4. Select the RADIUS server to which you want to add the dictionary, and select Manage Server Files from the context menu.

5. On the Manage Server Files page, click the Dictionary Files tab.

6. Click Add New.

7. In the RADIUS Dictionary File field, click Browse.

8. Select the RADIUS dictionary you want to add, and click Open.

   RADIUS dictionary files start with the word "dictionary," and are often followed by a vendor name, for example, dictionary.3com or dictionary.rfc5580.

9. Click Submit.

10. Add an entry for the dictionary in the vendor.ini file:

    1. In the Manage Server Files page, click the Configuration Files tab.

    2. Click the vendor.ini file, and select Edit from the context menu.

    3. Add an entry for the dictionary file you just added.

       The format the entry takes is described in the comments of the vendor.ini file.

    4. Click Save.

11. Add an entry for the dictionary.* file in the main dictionary file:

    1. Click the dictionary file, and select Edit from the context menu.

    2. Add an entry for the dictionary file you just added. Under Specific Implementations, type:

       #INCLUDE dictionary.name

       where dictionary.name is the filename of the dictionary.

    3. Click Save & Restart RADIUS Server.

12. On the primary instance, repeat this procedure for each RSA RADIUS server in the deployment.
