2.3 Configuring the RADIUS Protocol

For the Quidway Series Ethernet Switches, the RADIUS protocol is configured on the
per RADIUS scheme basis. In real networking environment, a RADIUS scheme can be
an independent RADIUS server or a set of primary/second RADIUS servers with the
same configuration but two different IP addresses. Accordingly, attributes of every
RADIUS scheme include IP addresses of primary and second servers, shared key and
RADIUS server type etc.
Actually, RADIUS protocol configuration only defines some necessary parameters
using for information interaction between NAS and RADIUS Server. To make these
parameters effective, it is necessary to configure, in the ISP domain view, an ISP
domain to use the RADIUS scheme. For more about the configuration commands, refer
to the AAA Configuration section above.
RADIUS protocol configuration includes:
Creating/deleting a RADIUS scheme
Configuring RADIUS Authentication/Authorization servers
Configuring RADIUS accounting servers and the related attributes
Setting the RADIUS packet encryption key
Setting retransmission times of RADIUS request packet
Configuring the user re-authentication at reboot
Setting the supported type of the RADIUS server
Setting the RADIUS server state
Configuring the quiet time interval
Setting the username format transmitted to the RADIUS server
Setting the unit of data flow that transmitted to the RADIUS server
Setting the local RADUIS authentication server
Configure source address for the RADIUS packets sent by the NAS
Setting timers of the RADIUS server
Among the above tasks, creating RADIUS scheme and setting IP address of RADIUS
server are required, while other takes are optional and can be performed as per your
requirements.
