Acceptable Use Policy
An acceptable use policy (AUP) is a policy users must agree to follow in order to access a network or the
Internet. It is common practice for many businesses and educational facilities to require that employees
or students agree to an acceptable use policy before accessing the network or Internet through the
SonicWALL.
LAN and DMZ are selected automatically from the Display on login from section. WAN and VPN are
also available.
In the Acceptable Use Policy field, enter the text of your policy. Click Apply to update the configuration.
Tip! Acceptable Use Policies can use HTML formatting in the body of the message.
Configuring RADIUS Authentication
To enable the SonicWALL to use authentication from a RADIUS server, follow these steps:
1. Select Use RADIUS for user authentication.
2. Select Allow only users listed locally if only the users listed in the SonicWALL database are
authenticated using RADIUS.
3. Click Configure to set up your RADIUS server settings on the SonicWALL. The RADIUS
Configuration window is displayed.
4. In the Global RADIUS Settings section, define the RADIUS Server Timeout (seconds). The
allowable range is 1-60 seconds with a default value of 5.
5. Define the number of times the SonicWALL attempts to contact the RADIUS server in the Retries
field. If the RADIUS server does not respond within the specified number of retries, the connection is
dropped. This field can range between 1 and 10, however 3 RADIUS server retries is recommended.
6. In the RADIUS Servers section, specify the settings of the primary RADIUS server in the RADIUS
servers section. An optional secondary RADIUS server can be defined if a backup RADIUS server
exists on the network.
7. Type the IP address of the RADIUS server in the IP Address field.
8. Type the Port Number for the RADIUS server.
9. Type the RADIUS server administrative password or “shared secret” in the Shared Secret field. The
alphanumeric Shared Secret can range from 1 to 31 characters in length. The shared secret is case
sensitive.
