TheNetopia R910 implements a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Ser vice (RADIUS) client (RFC 2138) and
adds the ability to authenticate console configuration access using a RADIUS ser ver. This feature is strictly for
console menu access authentication only, and is not intended for WAN connectivity access authentication.
Earlier routers use a local console authentication database consisting of between one and four user-
name/password pairs. They require a user seeking console configuration access to log in with a username and
password when at least one username/password pair have been configured locally in the router. If no user-
name/password pairs are defined, a user seeking console configuration access is given access without being
required to log in.
TheR910 adds the ability to authenticate users seeking console configuration access by using a remote
authentication database maintained by a RADIUS ser ver. It suppor ts four security database modes:
■
Local Only
■
RADIUS only
■
RADIUS then Local
■
Local then RADIUS
