Specifying the shared keys for secure RADIUS communication
The RADIUS client and server use the MD5 algorithm and shared keys to generate the Authenticator
value for packet authentication and user password encryption. The client and server must use the
same key for each type of communication.
A key configured in this task is for all servers of the same type (accounting or authentication) in the
scheme. The key has a lower priority than a key configured individually for a RADIUS server.
To specify a shared key for secure RADIUS communication:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter RADIUS scheme view.
3. Specify a shared key for
secure RADIUS
communication.
Specifying a VPN for the scheme
The VPN specified for a RADIUS scheme applies to all authentication and accounting servers in that
scheme. If a VPN is also configured for an individual RADIUS server, the VPN specified for the
RADIUS scheme does not take effect on that server.
To specify a VPN for a scheme:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter RADIUS scheme view.
3. Specify a VPN for the RADIUS
scheme.
Setting the username format and traffic statistics units
A username is in the userid@isp-name format, where the isp-name argument represents the user's
ISP domain name. By default, the ISP domain name is included in a username. However, older
RADIUS servers might not recognize usernames that contain the ISP domain names. In this case,
you can configure the device to remove the domain name of each username to be sent.
If two or more ISP domains use the same RADIUS scheme, configure the RADIUS scheme to keep
the ISP domain name in usernames for domain identification.
The device reports online user traffic statistics in accounting packets. The traffic measurement units
are configurable, but they must be the same as the traffic measurement units configured on the
RADIUS accounting servers.
To set the username format and the traffic statistics units for a RADIUS scheme:
