Warning: If you delete the file, you must deselect a box on the SecurID server to indicate that the node secret file for the Juniper Networks device and the SecurID server no longer exists. Otherwise authentication attempts will fail. |
When the Juniper Networks device initially communicates successfully with the SecurID server, a node secret file is created for it automatically. The file is created as a result of the handshake between the Juniper Networks device and the SecurID server after the software authenticates the first user successfully. All subsequent communication between the Juniper Networks device and the SecurID server relies on this secret as a representation of trust between the two nodes instead of repeating the handshake with each authentication request.
Under normal circumstances you should not delete the node secret file. In the rare case that you must do so, for example, to debug a serious problem, you can use the clear command to remove the file.

To delete the node secret file, enter the following command. During subsequent user authentication, the device reestablishes a shared secret with the SecurID server and re-creates the node secret file.
