Answers file contents

The answers file produced by the Installation Wizard contains all the configuration settings except for:

  • passwords
  • keys

Anything that is masked in the display will not be written to the file.

The file needs to be edited for each OneSpan Authentication Server instance upon which it is to be installed. The passwords and license key will have to be added manually using a text editor.

The following fields need to be updated for each OneSpan Authentication Server instance:

  • IP address
  • Every password
  • License

The following may need to be updated, depending on the configuration:

  • RADIUS client location and shared secret
  • RADIUS topology (back-end addresses and shared secret)
  • DNS Auto server location support
  • Database passwords
  • First administrator ID and password (if required)

Passwords and key names are always case sensitive. User IDs may be case sensitive depending on the case conversion settings.

If you manually enter group names (shown in square brackets in the sample file below), remember that group names are case sensitive, and should be entered as shown below.
