1. Enter the IP address
(nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn) of the DHCP
server for this domain.
NOTE: If you do not enter a value in
this field (i.e., the field is null), then all
DHCP requests (with domain name
information) from this NSP domain's
end users will be dropped.
2. (Optional) Enter the IP address
(nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn) of the
Authentication server for this domain if
you want to confirm the location of the
end user before forwarding the
message to the DHCP server. This step
is required if RADIUS or XTACACS is
specified.
3. (Optional) If you are using the RADIUS
authentication type, you must fill in this
field. The RADIUS secret is the key

4. Do one of the following to specify the
authentication type:
– Enter N (None) if you do not want to
perform an authentication
– Enter R (RADIUS) if you want to
forward the message to a RADIUS
server to confirm the location of the
end user before sending the
message to the DHCP server.
– Enter T (XTACACS) if you want to
forward the message to a XTACACS
server to confirm the location of the
end user before forwarding the
message to the DHCP server.
NOTE: Passwords configured on the
authentication servers must not be
configured with an expiration date.
Make sure the appropriate
administrators are notified.
5. (Optional) Enter the length of time (in
seconds) that the system waits for a
