Administering Profiles

This chapter describes how to set up and administer user profiles.

About Profiles

RSA RADIUS Server lets you define default templates of checklist and return list
attributes called profiles. A profile provides specific attributes for one or both lists.
You can define as many profiles as you require. Profiles provide a powerful means
of managing and configuring accounts. To change attributes settings across many
users immediately, edit the profile that you have assigned to these users.

Adding a Checklist or Return List Attribute for a Profile

A checklist attribute is an item of information that must accompany a RADIUS
Access-Request for a connection before the connection can be authenticated.

A return list attribute is an item of information that the RSA RADIUS Server
includes in the RADIUS Access-Accept message when a user is authenticated and
a connection request is approved.
