10.1.3. Configuring a Remote Server
Setting up an AAA remote server is done using the "aaa remote-server host" command. The setup
parameters for a server are listed below:
• Server Priority (1-5, where 1 is the highest)
• IP Address
• Shared Secret
• Remote Server Port (Optional)
• Wait Time (Optional)
• Retries (Optional)
Typical configuration of a remote server:
fiberdriver(config)# aaa remote-server host 1 192.168.14.12 sharedsecret
Once an AAA remote server has been declared, operational parameters (specific to that server) may be
individually set (revised) using the "aaa remote-server X" commands listed below.
Set the AAA protocol port (default=0 means the normal port for the chosen AAA protocol):
fiberdriver(config)# aaa remote-server <1-5> port <0-65535>
Set the number of seconds to timeout a server response (default=3):
fiberdriver(config)# aaa remote-server <1-5> timeout <0-10>
Set the number of server connection retry attempts (default=0):
fiberdriver(config)# aaa remote-server <1-5> retries <0-10>
The following parameters apply to a AAA remote server:
Set the primary service name (default=ppp):
fiberdriver(config)# aaa remote-server <1-5> service NAME
Set the sub-protocol for the primary service (default=lcp):
fiberdriver(config)# aaa remote-server <1-5> protocol PROTOCOL
Set the minimum privilege level corresponding to the SUPER access class (default=5):
fiberdriver(config)# aaa remote-server <1-5> priv-super <2-15>
Set the minimum privilege level corresponding to the NORMAL access class (default=3):
fiberdriver(config)# aaa remote-server <1-5> priv-normal <1-14>
