RADIUS Accounting Attributes (RFC 2139)

The following RADIUS accounting attributes are supported in the Digi PortServer TS 8/16.

How RADIUS Works

Here is how authentication works when PortServer TS 8/16 is configured for RADIUS:

1. A user logs into PortServer TS 8/16.

2. PortServer TS 8/16 collects login information and then checks to see if the user is in the local

database of users.

3. If the user is in the local database, PortServer TS 8/16 handles authentication.

4. If the user is not in the local database, PortServer TS 8/16 submits an authentication request to

the RADIUS server.

5. The RADUIS server does one of the following:

•

If the user is validated, it passes this information to other devices and the user is permitted
access.

•

If the user is not validated, the RADIUS server returns an access reject message to PortS-
erver TS 8/16, which then denies access to the user.

Configuring RADIUS: Web Interface

Use this section for information on configuring PortServer TS 8/16 as a RADIUS client from the
web interface.

1. Access the web interface by entering the PortServer TS 8/16 IP address in a browser’s URL win-

dow.

2. Log in to the PortServer TS 8/16 as root.

The default password is dbps.

3. From the main menu, choose Configure > RADUIS.

4. Configure the RADIUS client as required. Use the online help for information on configuration

fields.

5. When you complete configuration, choose Submit.
