Configuring RADIUS authentication

To configure the Nortel SNAS domain to use an external RADIUS server
for authentication, use the following command:

/cfg/doamin #/aaa/auth <auth ID>

where

auth ID

is an integer in the range 1 to 63 that uniquely identifies

the authentication method in the Nortel SNAS domain. If you do not
specify the

auth ID

in the command, you are prompted for it.

When you first create the method for the domain, you must enter the
authentication ID. After you have created the method and defined a name
for it, you can use either the ID or the name to access the method for
configuration.

You can perform the following configuration tasks:

“Adding the RADIUS authentication method” (page 181)

“Modifying RADIUS configuration settings” (page 182)

“Managing RADIUS authentication servers” (page 184)

“Configuring session timeout” (page 186)
