Issue
After running network vulnerability scanner against Authentication Manager or RADIUS ports backup failing.
The following error message "Unable to read RADIUS object -Could not create SSL Socket" is displayed in System Log report as per below logs:

Workaround
If there is a corporate or governmental policy which requires scanning of the ports, the implementation of the policy will need to include a reboot of Authentication Manager Server after the completion of the scan.
