Configuring the FortiGate authentication settings

1. On the FortiGate, go to User & Device > RADIUS Servers and create the connection to the FortiAuthenticator RADIUS server, using its IP address and pre-shared secret.

Use Test Connectivity to make sure that the FortiGate can communicate with the FortiAuthenticator.



2. Next, go to User & Device > User Groups and create a RADIUS user group called RADIUSgroup.

Set the Type to Firewall and add the RADIUS server to the Remote groups table.
