The following commands define three address pools, each containing 50 addresses.
Pool 1 contains 10.2.3.4 through 10.2.3.54. Pool 2 contains 11.5.7.51 through
11.5.7.101. Pool 3 contains 12.7.112.15 through 12.7.112.65.
admin> read ip-global
admin> set pool-base-address 1 = 10.2.3.4
admin> set pool-base-address 2 = 11.5.7.51
admin> set pool-base-address 3 = 12.7.112.15
admin> set assign-count 1 = 50
admin> set assign-count 2 = 50
admin> set assign-count 3 = 50
admin> write -f
Following is a comparable RADIUS
pools
profile (for use by a single RADIUS server):
pools-taos01 Password = "ascend", Service-Type = Outbound-User
Ascend-IP-Pool-Definition = "1 10.2.3.4 50",
Ascend-IP-Pool-Definition = "2 11.5.7.51 50",
Ascend-IP-Pool-Definition = "3 12.7.112.15 50"
Following is a comparable global pools definition (for use with RADIPAD):
global-pool-ppp Password ="ascend", Service-Type = Outbound-User
Ascend-IP-Pool-Definition = "1 10.2.3.4 50",
Ascend-IP-Pool-Definition = "2 11.5.7.51 50",
Ascend-IP-Pool-Definition = "3 12.7.112.15 50"
Although some client software assumes a default subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 for
PPP interfaces, you can define pools on subnets wider than /24. For example, the
following commands define an address pool on a /23 subnet:
admin> read ip-global
admin> set pool-base-address 1 = 10.55.178.1
admin> set assign-count 1 = 510
admin> write -f
This pool definition translates to 10.55.178.0/23 (a subnet mask of 255.255.254.0).
Following are comparable RADIUS definitions:
pools-taos01 Password = "ascend", Service-Type = Outbound-User
Ascend-IP-Pool-Definition = "1 10.55.178.1 510"
global-pool-ppp Password ="ascend", Service-Type = Outbound-User
Ascend-IP-Pool-Definition = "1 10.55.178.1 510"
Example of configuring summarized address pools
The
pool-summary
feature reduces routing overhead associated with address pools.
Instead of advertising each address assigned from a pool as a host route, the system
suppresses the host route advertisements and instead advertises a static route to the
pool itself.
To use summarized pools locally or in RADIUS, you must set the
pool-summary
flag to
yes
in the
ip-global
profile, and you must define all pools to be network-aligned.
