Along with the authentication results, you can obtain the user’s group affiliation from the
authentication process. The returned group information will be used to match the user to an Identity
Profile in the Rights Assignment table. This assumes you have created Identity Profiles that match the
groups that may be returned from the authentication process.
The information required to configure the RADIUS service for authentication is defined in Table 5-15 as
