Role Attributes
RADIUS attributes form the heart of the role-based access control system. Different user roles may have
different attributes associated with them, which allows you to control the behavior of network access
devices that authenticate users with the RADIUS server.
Furthermore, you can associate a set of rules called a condition with each RADIUS attribute. This allows
you to make adjustments to the precise definition of a role depending on what kind of access is being
requested.
You can choose to use either the Standard RADIUS attributes that are applicable to all vendors or to use the
attributes particular to your vendor.
If you want to use the vendor specific attributes, select the vendor from the drop down list. The available
attributes for the selected vendor will be displayed in the drop-down list for the
Attribute
field.
Additional vendors and attributes may be defined in the RADIUS Dictionary. See “Dictionary” for more
information in this chapter.
Enter a value for this attribute in the Value field. For integer enumerated attributes, choose an appropriate
value from the Value drop-down list. To calculate the value of the attribute using an expression, See
“Dictionary” in this chapter.
Additional attributes can be added by clicking the
Add Attribute
button at the bottom of the window.
