If a Framed-Route definition in a user profile duplicates a route defined in a route or IP-Route
profile, the user profile definition takes precedence while the connection is active. For
example, suppose a static route to network 10.10.10.10 is defined in a local IP-Route profile
with a metric of 10. A RADIUS user profile in RADIUS defines a static route to 10.10.10.10
with a metric of 7. When the RADIUS user's route is not in use, the routing table indicates that
the route has a metric of 10. When the route is in use, the MAX routing table indicates that the
route has a metric of 7, with an r in the flags column to indicate that the route came from
RADIUS. Furthermore, the route with a metric of 10 remains in the routing table, with an
asterisk (*) in the flags column, indicating that it is a hidden route.
Connection-specific private static routes (RADIUS only)
The following attribute-value pairs configure IP options in a RADIUS profile:
Attribute
Ascend-Private-Route
(104)
Configuring the default route
If no routes exist for the destination address of a packet, the MAX forwards the packet to the
default route. Most sites use the default route to off-load routing tasks to other devices, such as
a local IP or a UNIX host running the route daemon.
Note: If the MAX does not have a default route, it drops packets for which it has no route.
To configure the default route:
1
2
3
4
Following is a comparable RADIUS default route:
route-max-1 Password = "ascend", Service-Type = Outbound-User

Value
A private framed route known only to the profile in which it is
specified. The value is a destination address and next-hop router
address (in that order).
Open the first IP Route profile (the route named Default) and activate it:
Ethernet
Static Rtes
Default
Name=Default
Active=Yes
Dest=0.0.0.0/0
Note: The name of the first Static Rtes profile is always Default, and its destination is
always 0.0.0.0. You cannot change these values.
Specify the router to use for packets with unknown destinations. For example:
Gateway=10.9.8.10
Specify a metric for this route, the route's preference, and whether the route is private. For
example:
Metric=1
Preference=100
Private=Yes
Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
Framed-Route = "0.0.0.0 10.9.8.10 1 y 100"
