To enable Mirket to receive authentication requests from Check Point, follow these steps:
Define Check Point appliance as a RADIUS client resource within Mirket.
Create an authentication policy for the Check Point RADIUS client resource or include it in an existing authentication policy.
Attach the Check Point resource to the Mirket Radius.
Before starting, ensure that you have installed Mirket Radius Gateway. To add a Radius Client to the Mirket Radius Gateway, follow these steps:
First, navigate to the directory C:\MirketRadius and open the config.json file.
Fill in the gateway and radiusClientList fields according to the provided specifications to ensure accurate and secure network configuration.
samName: Enter the SAM name of the gateway. In Mirket, user identification is done using the SAM (Security Account Manager) name. This is preferred over the standard username. This username is used for authentication and access controls. Please provide your domain name, such as 'mirket'.
authenticationPort: Enter the authentication port value you set for the gateway. The default value is 1812.
accountingPort: Enter the accounting port value you specified for the gateway. The default value is 1813.
gatewayIp: Enter the IP address of the server where the Mirket is installed.
ipAddress: Enter the IP address of your firewall.
secretKey: Enter your secret key. This secret key is used to link your radius client and radius server, so ensure they are identical.
Once you've made the necessary changes to the config.json file, save and close it. Note: You can add multiple RADIUS clients.
After completing the configuration, restart the 'Mirket Radius Gateway Service'.
To set up multifactor authentication, make sure you have at least one user group in Mirket.
If it is preferred to use a local user, first create a local group and then create a local user and make the user a member of the group.
If it is preferred to use LDAP users, the priority LDAP group is created by pulling users from Active Directory or OpenLDAP in Mirket.
Radius Rules define user access to resources and the authentication methods available (such as SMS, Approve / Deny, OTP etc.).
First, you should follow these steps:
Select Rules > Radius Rules.
Click on Add New.
Enter a rule name in the Name field.
Enter the rule description in the Description field.
Select the group to which the rule applies from the Group dropdown list.
Select the provider to which the rule applies from the Provider dropdown list.
Select the authorization profile to which the rule applies from the Authorization dropdown list.
Click on Save to confirm settings.
To validate the integration between Mirket MFA and your Check Point appliance, perform authentication using a mobile token on your mobile device. For RADIUS resources, available authentication methods include Approve/Deny authentication.
In this example, we illustrate the use of the Approve/Deny authentication method.
Launch the Check Point Endpoint Security client application. Then click on the VPN client icon in the taskbar and select Connect to.
Choose the public IP address of the Check Point appliance from the Site dropdown list.
Enter your Mirket username in the Username field.
Input your password in the Password field.
Click on Connect. Then, select the 'Approve' option(found in the Mirket mobile app) immediately and make sure it doesn't time out.
