Configuring the RADIUS Server
Summary of the configuration procedure
You must configure your RADIUS server to work with the Rack PDU.
1. Add the IP address of the Rack PDU to the RADIUS server client list (file).
2. Users must be configured with Service-Type attributes unless Vendor Specific
Attributes (VSAs) are defined. If no Service-Type attributes are configured,
users will have read-only access (on the Web interface only).
3. VSAs can be used instead of the Service-Type attributes provided by the
RADIUS server. VSAs require a dictionary entry and a RADIUS users file. In
the dictionary file, define the names for the ATTRIBUTE and VALUE keywords,
but not for the numeric values. If you change numeric values, RADIUS
authentication and authorization will fail. VSAs take precedence over standard
RADIUS attributes.
For examples of the RADIUS users file with Vendor Specific Attributes (VSAs)
and an example of an entry in the dictionary file on the RADIUS server, see
Appendix B: Security Handbook .
See your RADIUS server documentation for information about the
RADIUS users file, and see
Appendix B: Security Handbook for an
example.
