Appendix E Using RADIUS Authentication
This chapter describes supplementary notes when using RADIUS Authentication.
E.1
Using RADIUS Authentication to Access the
ETERNUS DX Disk Storage System
•
RADIUS Authentication is used to authenticate logging in to the ETERNUS DX Disk storage
system with GUI or CLI.
•
Up to two RADIUS servers can be connected to an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.
•
To use RADIUS Authentication, the user account information (user name, password, and role
name) that is allowed to access ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in the RADIUS server
must be pre-registered.
•
There are two types of authentication methods: CHAP and PAP.
•
User roles are specified in the Vendor Specific Attribute (VSA) of the Access-Accept response
from the server. The following table shows the syntax of the VSA based account role on the
RADIUS server.
