Configure Trellix ESM to authenticate users to a RADIUS server.

Make sure that you set up the Access groups on the ESM. For more information see, Configure user groups topic andKB81986.

Note

If you must comply with FIPS regulations, do NOT use this RADIUS authentication. RADIUS is not FIPS-compliant.

  1. From the Trellix ESM dashboard, click menu.png and select System Properties.

  2. Click Login Security.

  3. Select the RADIUS tab, then specify characteristics for your RADIUS server: IP address, server port, and shared secret (such as password). A secondary server is optional. Then click OK or Apply.

    Note

    When you enable the RADIUS server, all users except the system administrator authenticate with the RADIUS server. If you disable authentication, users set up for RADIUS authentication cannot access Trellix ESM.
