BSR 2000 Configuration and Management Guide

Enabling the RADIUS Client on the BSR

Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) provides additional secure
remote network access through authentication, authorization and accounting services.
The BSR 2000 uses a RADIUS client to authenticate user login information
(passwords) stored on the remote RADIUS server.
The RADIUS client feature is off by default. Once the RADIUS client feature is
enabled and configured, a user enters a password in their telnet or console session to
access the BSR 2000. The BSR 2000 uses the RADIUS client to authenticate this
RADIUS encrypted password with a remote RADIUS server. If the RADIUS server
validates the password, the user gains access to the BSR 2000.

Configuring the RADIUS Client for Server Communication

Follow these steps to configure the RADIUS client for server communication:
1. Use the radius-server host auth-port primary command in Global
2. Use the radius-server host command in Global Configuration mode to specify a
3-40
Configuration mode to specify a primary RADIUS server for RADIUS client
requests:
MOT(config)# radius-server host [<A.B.C.D> | <Hostname>] auth-port
<0-65535> primary
where:
A.B.C.D is the IP address of the remote RADIUS server.
Hostname is the Hostname of the remote RADIUS server.
0-65535 is the optionally defined UDP port for the RADIUS authentication
server. The default port is 1812.
primary specifies the server as the primary RADIUS server.
secondary or back-up RADIUS server for RADIUS client requests:
MOT(config)# radius-server host [<A.B.C.D> | <Hostname>] [auth-port
<0-65535> | <cr>]
where:
A.B.C.D is the IP address of the remote RADIUS server.
Hostname is the hostname of the remote RADIUS server.
