Hey All,

 

Got a question about radius login authentication.  I’ve been setting up
our core routers to use a central radius db, to help simplify user
access.  However I have hit a snag.  I was really hoping to have the
password encrypted on the server using MD5, so that they couldn’t be
retrieved by other people that have access to the server.  

 

This works fine when I login via telnet or ssh.  However, if I use
winbox it fails.  While debugging radius I noticed that the winbox
connections come through as a chap authentication, whether secure mode
is checked or not.  Obviously for chap auth the server has to have a
plain text password.

 

Has anybody else come across this?  What did you do to solve/get around
it?

 

Thanks for the insight.
