Specify a shared key for

authenticating RADIUS

or accounting packets.

key { accounting | authentication }
[ cipher | simple ] key

No shared key is specified by
default.
In FIPS mode, the firewall supports

only ciphertext shared keys of at

least 8 characters comprising
case-sensitive letters, numbers, and

special characters.

NOTE:

A shared key configured on the firewall must be the same as that configured on the RADIUS server.

Specifying a VPN for the RADIUS scheme

After you specify a VPN for a RADIUS scheme, all the authentication/authorization/accounting servers

specified for the scheme belong to the VPN. However, if you also specify a VPN when specifying a server

for the scheme, the server belongs to the specified VPN.
To specify a VPN for a RADIUS scheme:

Step Command

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

2.

Enter RADIUS scheme view.

radius scheme radius-scheme-name

3.

Specify a VPN for the RADIUS scheme.

Setting the supported RADIUS server type

The supported RADIUS server type determines the type of the RADIUS protocol that the firewall uses to
communicate with the RADIUS server. It can be standard or extended:

Standard—Uses the standard RADIUS protocol, compliant to RFC 2865 and RFC 2866 or later.

Extended—Uses the proprietary RADIUS protocol of H3C.

When the RADIUS server runs on CAMS or IMC, you must set the RADIUS server type to extended.

When the RADIUS server runs third-party RADIUS server software, either RADIUS server type applies. For

the firewall to function as a RADIUS server to authenticate login users, you must set the RADIUS server

type to standard.
To set the RADIUS server type:
