  • Page 17: Radius Attributes

    Bay Networks vendor-specific attributes (VSAs) and vendor-specific enumerations of attributes (VSEs). This document lists all the RADIUS attributes in numerical order, indicating which attributes the RAC supports and which it does not. Supported attributes are described, with each description containing: •...
  • Page 18: Radius Authentication Attributes

    Specifies either the password of the user attempting access or the password entered by the user in response to an Access-Challenge. The password is encrypted when transmitted to the RADIUS server. Usage: This can be a fixed password (such as a PAP password) or a one- time password (such as a SecurID password).
  • Page 19: Chap-Password (3)

    NAS-IP-Address (4) Specifies the RAC’s IP address as a form of identification. Usage: This attribute cannot be used by the server to look up the RADIUS secret; the IP header must be used for that purpose. Multiple Instances Allowed: No.
  • Page 20: Nas-Port (5)

    For example, if two users are connected via FTP at the same time, the port number of the first user to connect is 2001, and the port number of the second user is 2002. RADIUS Attributes Reference Virtual Device Type VCLI and FTP...

    RAC rejects the user. (If no service type is returned from the server, the RAC allows the user any type of access.) RADIUS Attributes Reference • Login [1] - The user is connected to a host via a terminal service protocol.
  • Page 23 Login-IP-Host (14) or Login-LAT- Node (35) has been specified, the user is prompted for a target host. Table 1 shows the relationship between the authorized Service-Type (6) and the current connection type. RADIUS Attributes Reference RADIUS Attributes...

  • Page 25: Framed-Protocol (7)

    When the user is already running a framed protocol (that is, Service-Type (6) is Framed [2]), the RAC sends the Framed-Protocol attribute value in the Access-Request as a hint to the RADIUS server. The server returns the authorized framed service in the Access-Response. If the returned value does not match the protocol in use, the RAC rejects the user.
  • Page 26: Framed-Ip-Address (8)

    Usage: Used in both Access-Request and Access-Accept packets. If the RAC configuration parameter address_origin is set to auth_server and the RADIUS server specifies a Framed-IP-Address (8) in the Access- Accept packet, the RAC uses that framed address as the IP network address of the remote user.
  • Page 27: Framed-Ip-Netmask (9)

    Send [1] - The RAC sends routing packets but does not listen for them. • Listen [2] - The RAC listens for routing packets but does not send them. This is the RADIUS default. • Send-And-Listen [3] - The RAC sends and listens for routing packets.
  • Page 28: Filter-Id (11)

    In creating filters, the server must follow the rules defined for the filter keyword in the RAC’s acp_userinfo file. See Managing the Remote Access Concentrator Using Command Line Interfaces. Multiple Instances Allowed: No. Dependencies: Only IP packets are filtered. RADIUS Attributes Reference...
  • Page 29: Framed-Mtu (12)

    Multiple Instances Allowed: Yes. Dependencies: The value of this attribute supersedes the value of the RAC port parameters do_compression and allow_compression. Both parameters are treated as Y if VJ TCP/IP [1] is specified and N if None [0] is specified. RADIUS Attributes Reference...
  • Page 30: Login-Ip-Host (14)

    The RAC handles this attribute as follows: Multiple Instances Allowed: No. Dependencies: The session is terminated upon logout. RADIUS Attributes Reference • If the attribute is specified when Service-Type (6) is Login and Login-Service (15) is Telnet or Rlogin, a terminal service connection is started for the user immediately after login.
  • Page 31: Login-Service (15)

    If it is not, the RAC prompts the user for a target host. • If the value is LAT [4], the Login-LAT-Node (35) attribute must be specified. If it is not, the RAC prompts the user for a target host. RADIUS Attributes Reference RADIUS Attributes...
  • Page 32: Login-Tcp-Port (16)

  • Page 33: Callback-Number (19)

    Specifies the name of a location to be called back. Usage: The RAC does not support this attribute. Instead, it supports Callback-Number (19). Multiple Instances Allowed: No. Dependencies: The RAC ignores this attribute for connection types other than callback. RADIUS Attributes Reference...
  • Page 34: Unassigned (21)

    Specifies a static IP route to be added to the RAC routing table. This route applies only to IP Framed [3] or Callback-Framed [4] services, and exists only for the duration of the RADIUS session. Usage: The route specification should use the format:...
  • Page 35: Framed-Ipx-Network (23)

    Usage: One or more of these attributes are sent in an Access-Accept from the server to the RAC, then held in the session and passed on in RADIUS Accounting-Request messages for logging. The server can use this attribute to pass on any sort of user information desired.
  • Page 36: Vendor-Specific (26)

    Specifies the number of seconds that the user can be dialed into the RAC before the RAC terminates the session. Usage: This optional attribute is used to restrict the duration of a user’s session. Multiple Instances Allowed: No. Dependencies: This attribute applies to all types of RAC sessions. RADIUS Attributes Reference...
  • Page 37: Idle-Timeout (28)

    Annex-CLI-Command (VSA Bay Networks 29), to script the user’s session. The default terminates the entire user session.

    Specifies the LAT port to which a reverse LAT connection is to be made. Usage: This optional attribute is used to further specify LAT connections. Multiple Instances Allowed: No. Dependencies: This attribute is meaningful for LAT Login-Service connections only. The RAC ignores it for other connection types. RADIUS Attributes Reference...
