If your appliance communicates via IPv6, use that IP address along with the related scope ID (interface ID). The IP address is the internal IP address of your appliance. Give the RADIUS client a memorable name for easy reference.Ĭonfigure the IP Address and Shared Secret for the Client so that they correspond to the configuration of your VPN appliance. Navigate to Components → RADIUS and locate the hostname of the server running the ESA RADIUS service.Ĭlick the hostname, then click Create New Radius Client. To allow the Check Point Software SSL VPN device to communicate with your ESA Server, you must configure the Check Point Software SSL VPN device as a RADIUS client on your ESA Server: If you wish to utilize other Client type, refer to generic description of Client types and verify with the vendor if the VPN appliance supports it.
