Appendix A Command Reference

[no] ip radius nas-ip-address {hostname | ip-address}

[no] ip radius nas-ip-address {hostname | ip-address}

The ML-Series card allows the user to configure a separate nas-ip-address for each ML-Series card. This
allows the Remote Authentication Dial In User Services (RADIUS) server to distinguish among
individual ML-Series card in the same ONS node. If there is only one ML-Series card in the ONS node,
this command does not provide any advantage. The public IP address of the ONS node serves as the
nas-ip-address in the RADIUS packet sent to the server.

Identifying the specific ML-Series card that sent the request to the server can be useful in debugging
from the server. The nas-ip-address is primarily used for validation of the RADIUS authorization and
accounting requests.

If this value is not configured, the nas-ip-address is filled in by the normal Cisco IOS mechanism using
the value configured by the ip radius-source command. If no value is specified, then the best IP address
that routes to the server is used. If no address routing to the server is available, the IP address of the
server is used.
