how do I logon to the ASA using RADIUS authentication? We are only using VPN with RADIUS authentication currently.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have successfully enabled Windows users to connect to my Cisco ASA VPN and authenticate to my Network Policy Server (NPS) as a RADIUS server.<br />
On my NPS, I configured to levels of privileges - one for normal domain users and another for Domain Admin. My domain admins are assigned &quot;shell:priv-lvl=15&quot;.<br />
<br />
How do I check on my ASA to see if the privilege is assigned correctly?<br />
<br />
sh vpn-sessiondb remote <br />
- does not show the privilege level of the user

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

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.
