Using Radius Authentication; Installing A Radius Server - ZyXEL Communications PRESTIGE 153 User Manual

11.2 Using RADIUS Authentication

Your Prestige has a built-in dial-up user list; however, the number of users that can be stored
locally is limited due to memory constraints. If you have more users than what the Prestige can
store locally, use an external RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) server that
provides authentication service for unlimited number of users.

11.2.1 Installing a RADIUS Server

To use RADIUS authentication, you need to have a UNIX or Windows NT machine on your
network as the RADIUS server, as well as the RADIUS software itself.
You can obtain the RADIUS server software, along with documentation, at
http://www.livingston.com/Tech/FTP/pub-le-radius.shtml
ftp://ftp.livingston.com/pub/le/radius
Follow the included instructions to install the software on your server.
After you install the server software, you will need to edit the
configuration directory (usually
the file:
