Configuring a RADIUS server

Model 3120 RAS Administrators’ Reference Guide

Figure 127. Authentication window

2. On the

Authentication

page, define values for the parameters as follows:

–

Validation: Select

staticThenRadius(4)

or

radiusUsers(2)

.

Note

We recommend you select

staticThenRadius

then add a static user to the

RAS’s user database. This will provide you an alternate login method so
you can still manage your RAS if RADIUS authentication should fail.

–

Host Address: Enter the IP address of your RADIUS server.

–

Secondary Host Address: Enter the IP address of your fallback RADIUS server, if you have one. Other-
wise, leave blank.

–

Host Port: Enter the UDP Port number your RADIUS server uses to receive authentication requests
(typically 1645 or 1812).

Note

The primary and secondary RADIUS server will use the same port
number.

–

Timeout: 2 is the default value; leave it alone unless you know better.

–

Retries: 3 is the default value; leave it alone unless you know better

–

Secret: Enter the secret from your RAS client profile on your RADIUS server.

–

NAS Identifier: Optional. You may enter the IP address or ‘friendly name’ of your RAS as defined in
your RADIUS server’s client list.
