Requirement
For the RADIUS authorization mode "Siemens VSA" the following needs to be set on the
RADIUS server:
● Manufacturer code: 4196
● Attribute number: 1

Procedure
If you have set the authorization mode "SiemensVSA", the authentication of users via a
RADIUS server runs as follows:

3. The RADIUS server runs a check and signals the result back to the device.
Case A: The RADIUS server reports a successful authentication and returns the group
assigned to the user to the device.
– The group is known on the device and the user is not entered in the table "External User
Accounts"
→ The user is logged in with the rights of the assigned group.
– The group is known on the device and the user is entered in the table "External User
Accounts"
→ The user is assigned the role with the higher rights and logged in with these rights.
– The group is not known on the device and the user is entered in the table "External User
Accounts"
→ The user is logged in with the rights of the role linked to the user account.
– The group is not known on the device and the user is not entered in the table "External
User Accounts"
→ The user is logged in with the rights of the role "Default".
Case B: The RADIUS server reports a successful authentication but does not return a group
to the device.
– The user is entered in the table "External User Accounts":
→ The user is logged in with the rights of the linked role "".
