2. If access levels are required, set up a Vendor-Specific Attributes (VSA) dictionary for
the RADIUS server and select an attribute ID that represents each user's access level.
The example below shows a dictionary file for FreeRADIUS that defines the attribute
"ACL-Auth-Level" with "ID=35". For the device's user access levels and their
corresponding numeric representation in RADIUS servers, see ''Configuring
Management User Accounts'' on page 69.
#
# AudioCodes VSA dictionary
#
VENDOR AudioCodes 5003
ATTRIBUTE ACL-Auth-Level 35 integer AudioCodes
VALUE ACL-Auth-Level ACL-Auth-UserLevel 50
VALUE ACL-Auth-Level ACL-Auth-AdminLevel 100
VALUE ACL-Auth-Level ACL-Auth-SecurityAdminLevel 200
3. Define the list of users authorized to use the device, using one of the password
authentication methods supported by the server implementation. The example below
shows a user configuration file for FreeRADIUS using a plain-text password:
# users - local user configuration database
john
sue
4. Record and retain the IP address, port number, shared secret code, vendor ID, and
VSA access level identifier (if access levels are implemented) used by the RADIUS
server.

15.3.6.2 Configuring RADIUS-based User Authentication

The following procedure describes how to configure RADIUS-based login authentication.
For a detailed description of the RADIUS parameters, see ''RADIUS Parameters'' on page
913.

To configure RADIUS-based login authentication:
1. Open the Authentication Server page (Setup menu > Administration tab > Web &
CLI folder > Authentication Server).
2. From the 'Use RADIUS for Web/Telnet Login' drop-down list, select Enable to enable
RADIUS authentication for Web and Telnet login:
Figure 15-16: Enabling RADIUS-based Login Authentication
3. When implementing Web user access levels, do one of the following:
Version 7.2
Auth-Type := Local, User-Password == "qwerty"
Service-Type = Login-User,
ACL-Auth-Level = ACL-Auth-SecurityAdminLevel
Auth-Type := Local, User-Password == "123456"
Service-Type = Login-User,
ACL-Auth-Level = ACL-Auth-UserLevel
