Configuring the RADIUS Server
Summary of the configuration procedure
You must configure your RADIUS server to work with the Main Module.
1. Add the IP address of the Main Module to the RADIUS server client list (file).
2. Users must be configured with Service-Type attributes unless Vendor Specific
Attributes (VSAs) are defined. If no Service-Type attributes are configured, the user
will have read-only access (on the Web interface only).
3. Vendor Specific Attributes (VSA) can be used instead of the Service-Type
attributes provided by the RADIUS server. VSAs require a dictionary entry and a
RADIUS users file. In the dictionary file, define the names for the ATTRIBUTE and
VALUE keywords, but not for the numeric values. If you change numeric values,
RADIUS authentication and authorization will fail. VSAs take precedence over
standard RADIUS attributes.
For examples of the RADIUS users file with Vendor Specific Attributes (VSAs)
and an example of an entry in the dictionary file on the RADIUS server, see
the APC Security Handbook.
RADIUS servers use port 1812 by default to authenticate users.
To use a different port, add a colon followed by the new port
number to the end of the RADIUS server name or IP address.
See your RADIUS server documentation for information about the
RADIUS users file, and see the APC Security Handbook for an example.
For examples of the RADIUS users file with VSAs and an example of an
entry in the dictionary file on the RADIUS server, see the APC Security
Handbook.
