follows:
•
Windows NT/2000 Password Aging—Users must be in the
Windows NT/2000 database and be using the Windows Dial-up Networking
(DUN) client. For information on the requirements and configuration of this
password aging mechanism, see the

Password Aging for Transit Sessions—Users must be in the CiscoSecure
user database. Users must be using the Windows 95/98/ME, Windows NT
3.51, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 DUN client, or another PPP dialup
client. Further, the end-user client must have CiscoSecure Authentication

Tip
The CAA software is available at http://www.cisco.com.
Also, to run password aging for transit sessions, the AAA client can be
running either RADIUS or TACACS+; and the AAA client must be using
Cisco IOS Release 11.2.7 or later and be configured to send a “watchdog”
accounting packet (aaa accounting new-info update) with the IP address of
the calling station. (Watchdog packets are interim packets sent periodically
during a session. They enable an approximation of session length in the event
that the AAA client fails and, thereby, no stop packet is received to mark the
end of the session.)
