I'll have to look, but I swear that Radius authentications were only allowed for VPN since the console and telnet passwords had to be on the device. &nbsp;When I read it, it made sense to me since if the Radius server goes down, you don't have access to the firewall anymore.<br />

Will get back to you later when I confirm in a little while.

I have the switches and router configured to use radius and I thought I could configure the pix to do the same. &nbsp;Everything I have looked at pertains to vpn and I was wondering if it would be the same config if using vpn or not.

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.

Security

Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a protocol suite for secure Internet Protocol (IP) communications by authenticating and encrypting each IP packet of a communication session. IPsec includes protocols for establishing mutual authentication between agents at the beginning of the session and negotiation of cryptographic keys to be used during the session. IPsec can be used in protecting data flows between a pair of hosts (host-to-host), between a pair of security gateways (network-to-network), or between a security gateway and a host (network-to-host). IPsec is an end-to-end security scheme operating in the Internet Layer of the Internet Protocol Suite.
