a year ago

Certified: September 25, 2024

Solution Summary

This guide describes SonicWall SonicOS integration with RSA ID Plus. Use this information to determine which use case and integration type your deployment will employ.

 

Use Case

SonicWall SonicOS can be integrated with RSA using RADIUS. When integrated, users must authenticate with RSA to sign in to SonicWall SonicOS.

 

Integration Types

RADIUS integrations provide a text-driven interface for RSA within the partner application. RADIUS provides support for most RSA authentication methods and flows.

 

Supported Features 

This section shows all the supported features by integration type and by RSA components. Use this information to determine which integration type and RSA component your deployment will use. The next section in this guide contains the instruction steps for how to integrate RSA with SonicWall SonicOS using each integration type.

Configuration Summary

This section contains instruction steps that show how to integrate SonicWall SonicOS with RSA using all of the integration types.
This document is not intended to suggest optimum installations or configurations. It is assumed that the reader has both working knowledge of all products involved, and the ability to perform the tasks outlined in this section. Administrators should have access to the product documentation for all products to install the required components.
All RSA and SonicWall SonicOS components must be installed and working prior to the integration.
This section of the guide includes links to the appropriate sections for configuring both sides for each use case.
