Second-level authentication provides a high level of protection via different types of security tokens for two-factor authentication. Users have to authenticate through two successive stages to get the remote application list. In addition to a standard user name and password, or a smart card authentication, second-level authentication uses a one-time password generated by a token. The second level of authentication can be provided by DualShield, Safenet, RADIUS, or Google authenticator.
A RADIUS server is recommended to be placed in the Intranet together with the RAS Connection Broker and Active Directory domain controller to speed up application enumeration.
It is recommended to specify Access Control Lists to only allow the IP addresses and protocols/ports necessary for the Wireless Access Points and other devices to communicate with the RADIUS server. No other devices should have a pathway to the RADIUS server.
In a configuration of this type, the second-level authentication via a RADIUS server is performed first. If the authentication procedure is successful, the next authentication takes place at the Active Directory level using either the username and password or a smart card.
Primary RAS Connection Broker is installed using the Parallels RAS installer (standard installation). Secondary RAS Connection Broker is push-installed from the RAS Console.
HALB is installed as a ready-to-use virtual appliance and configured in HALB VS properties.
All other components are push-installed from the RAS console.
