Configure Attributes on the RADIUS Server

To authenticate users,

you will need to configure users either in the local database or on RADIUS
servers. To configure services for Employee access, the following items
should be configured on the RADIUS server.

To configure the RADIUS server

1 Configure RADIUS server to perform 802.1X using the recommended

EAP method PEAP + MSCHAPV2.

2 Setup each WX switch as a RADIUS client.

3 Define any desired 3Com vendor-specific attributes (VSAs) in the RADIUS

server’s dictionary.

The vendor-specific attributes (VSAs) created by 3Com are embedded
according to the procedure recommended in RFC 2865, with Vendor-ID
set to 14525. Table 10 describes the 3Com VSAs, listed in order by
vendor type number.
