You may use a RADIUS server with a Remote Access Concentrator both for remote device authentication
and to maintain accounting information.
NOTE
If the RADIUS device is not on the same subnet as the Concentrator, you will need to
define either a default LAN route (see
Section 4.3.1.B
) or a static LAN route (see
Section 4.3.1.C
) to the RADIUS device, and add a matching route on that device (that is,
a route from the device to the Concentrator) by issuing a route command at the
device’s command prompt.
For information regarding RADIUS Client features supported by the Concentrator’s
software, see
Section 4.3.5.C
.
To configure RADIUS information on the Concentrator:
1. Select Module Configuration from the Local Management utility’s Module Menu.
2. Select RADIUS from the Module Configuration menu. This screen will appear:
3. If you’ll be using a RADIUS server as an authentication server for remote devices, you
must
configure the
Authentication Servers settings; see
Section 4.3.5.A
. You don’t need to configure the Accounting Servers
settings unless you’re also using a RADIUS server for accounting information; if you are, see
Section 4.3.5.B
.
