Setting Timers Regarding Radius Servers - H3C S5120-EI Series Operation Manual

To do...
Enter system view
Enable the RADIUS trap
function
Create a RADIUS scheme and
enter RADIUS scheme view
Specify the format of the
username to be sent to a
RADIUS server
Specify the unit for data flows
or packets to be sent to a
RADIUS server
Set the
source IP
address of the
device to
send RADIUS
packets
Some earlier RADIUS servers cannot recognize usernames that contain an ISP domain name. In
this case, the device must remove the domain name before sending a username including a
domain name. You can configure the user-name-format without-domain command on the
device for this purpose.
If a RADIUS scheme defines that the username is sent without the ISP domain name, do not apply
the RADIUS scheme to more than one ISP domain, thus avoiding the confused situation where the
RADIUS server regards two users in different ISP domains but with the same userid as one.
The unit of data flows sent to the RADIUS server must be consistent with the traffic statistics unit of
the RADIUS server. Otherwise, accounting cannot be performed correctly.
The nas-ip command in RADIUS scheme view is only for the current RADIUS scheme, while the
radius nas-ip command in system view is for all RADIUS schemes. However, the nas-ip
command in RADIUS scheme view takes precedence over the radius nas-ip command.

Setting Timers Regarding RADIUS Servers

When communicating with the RADIUS server, a device can enable the following three timers:
RADIUS server response timeout (response-timeout): If a NAS receives no response from the
RADIUS server in a period of time after sending a RADIUS request (authentication/authorization or
accounting request), it has to resend the request so that the user has more opportunity to obtain
the RADIUS service. The NAS uses the RADIUS server response timeout timer to control the
transmission interval.
Use the command...
system-view
radius trap
{ accounting-server-down |
authentication-server-down }
radius scheme
radius-scheme-name
user-name-format
{ keep-original | with-domain |
without-domain }
data-flow-format { data { byte
| giga-byte | kilo-byte |
mega-byte } | packet
{ giga-packet | kilo-packet |
mega-packet | one-packet } }*
In RADIUS
nas-ip ip-address
scheme view
quit
In system view
radius nas-ip ip-address
1-27

Optional
By default, the ISP domain
name is included in the
username.

The defaults are as follows:
byte for data flows, and
one-packet for data packets.
