RADIUS Server Configuration
This page allows you to configure the RADIUS servers.
Global Configuration
These setting are common for all of the RADIUS servers.
Timeout
: The number of seconds, in the range 1 to 1000, to wait for a reply from a RADIUS server
before retransmitting the request.
Retransmit
: The number of times, in the range 1 to 1000, a RADIUS request is retransmitted to a
server that is not responding. If the server has not responded after the last retransmit it is
considered to be dead.
Deadtime
is the period during which the switch will not send new requests to a server that has
failed to respond to a previous request. This will stop the switch from continually trying to contact a
server that it has already determined as dead. Deadtime can be set to a number between 0 to
1440 minutes. Setting the Deadtime to a value greater than 0 (zero) will enable this feature, but
only if more than one server has been configured.
Key
: The secret key - up to 63 characters long - shared between the RADIUS server and the
switch.
NAS-IP-Address
(Attribute 4
)
: The IPv4 address to be used as attribute 4 in RADIUS
Access-Request packets. If this field is left blank, the IP address of the outgoing interface is used.
NAS-IPv6-Address
(Attribute 95): The IPv6 address to be used as attribute 95 in RADIUS
Access-Request packets. If this field is left blank, the IP address of the outgoing interface is used.
NAS-Identifier
(Attribute 32):
The identifier - up to 255 characters long - to be used as attribute
32 in RADIUS Access-Request packets. If this field is left blank, the NAS-Identifier is not included
in the packet.
