Other vendors have their own unique vendor-IDs, options, and associated VSAs. For more information
about vendor-IDs and VSAs, see RFC 2138, “Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS).”
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the ML-Series card to recognize
and use VSAs:
For a complete list of RADIUS attributes or more information about vendor-specific attribute 26, see the
“RADIUS Attributes” appendix in the Cisco IOS Security Configuration Guide, Release 12.2.
Configuring the ML-Series Card for Vendor-Proprietary RADIUS Server Communication
Although an IETF draft standard for RADIUS specifies a method for communicating vendor-proprietary
information between the ML-Series card and the RADIUS server, some vendors have extended the
RADIUS attribute set in a unique way. Cisco IOS software supports a subset of vendor-proprietary
RADIUS attributes.
As mentioned earlier, to configure RADIUS (whether vendor-proprietary or IETF draft-compliant), you
must specify the host running the RADIUS server daemon and the secret text string it shares with the
ML-Series card. You specify the RADIUS host and secret text string by using the radius-server global
configuration commands.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to specify a vendor-proprietary RADIUS server
host and a shared secret text string:
Command Purpose
Step 1 Router# configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 Router (config)# radius-server
vsa send [accounting |
authentication ]
Enable the ML-Series card to recognize and use VSAs as defined by
RADIUS IETF attribute 26.
• (Optional) Use the accounting keyword to limit the set of recognized
vendor-specific attributes to only accounting attributes.
• (Optional) Use the authentication keyword to limit the set of
recognized vendor-specific attributes to only authentication attributes.
If you enter this command without keywords, both accounting and
authentication vendor-specific attributes are used.
The AAA server includes the authorization level in the VSA response
message for the ML-Series card.
Step 3 Router (config)# end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4 Router# show running-config Verify your settings.
Step 5 Router# copy running-config
startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Command Purpose
Step 1 Router# configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 Router (config)# radius-server host { hostname |
ip-address} non-standard
Specify the IP address or hostname of the remote
RADIUS server host and identify that it is using a
vendor-proprietary implementation of RADIUS.
