Notes
While the IDR-based SecurID Access RADIUS server supports a shared secret length of up to 512 characters and most special characters, RADIUS client devices may have different limitations.
Select shared secrets that are fully supported by the RADIUS devices in your network.
See the Administration Console's on-screen help for the IDR RADIUS Server shared secret requirements.
