Starting Radius Accounting; Configuring A Nas-Ip-Address In The Radius Packet - Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Configuration Manual

Configuring RADIUS
Command
Step 1
Router# configure terminal
Step 2
Router (config)# aaa authorization
network radius
Step 3
Router (config)# aaa authorization
exec radius
Step 4
Router (config)# end
Step 5
Router# show running-config
Step 6
Router# copy running-config
startup-config
To disable authorization, use the no aaa authorization {network | exec} method1 global configuration
command.

Starting RADIUS Accounting

The AAA accounting feature tracks the services that users are accessing and the amount of network
resources that they are consuming. When AAA accounting is enabled, the ML-Series card reports user
activity to the RADIUS security server in the form of accounting records. Each accounting record
contains accounting attribute-value (AV) pairs and is stored on the security server. This data can then be
analyzed for network management, client billing, or auditing.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable RADIUS accounting for each
Cisco IOS privilege level and for network services:
Command
Step 1
Router# configure terminal
Step 2
Router (config)# aaa accounting
network start-stop radius
Step 3
Router (config)# aaa accounting exec
start-stop radius
Step 4
Router (config)# end
Step 5
Router# show running-config
Step 6
Router# copy running-config
startup-config
To disable accounting, use the no aaa accounting {network | exec} start-stop method1... global
configuration command.

Configuring a nas-ip-address in the RADIUS Packet

The ML-Series card in RADIUS relay mode allows the user to configure a separate nas-ip-address for
each ML-Series card. In RADIUS standalone mode, this command is hidden in the Cisco IOS CLI. This
allows the RADIUS server to distinguish among individual ML-Series card in the same ONS node.

Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Configure the ML-Series card for user RADIUS authorization for all
network-related service requests.
Configure the ML-Series card for user RADIUS authorization if the user
has privileged EXEC access.
The exec keyword might return user profile information (such as
autocommand information).
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enable RADIUS accounting for all network-related service requests.
Enable RADIUS accounting to send a start-record accounting notice at
the beginning of a privileged EXEC process and a stop-record at the end.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
