Configuration Task List For Radius - Dell Force10 S4810P Configuration Manual

Auto-command
You can configure the system through the RADIUS server to automatically execute a command when you
connect to a specific line. To do this, use the command
when the user is authenticated and before the prompt appears to the user.
Set access to privilege levels through RADIUS
Through the RADIUS server, you can use the command
user to enter into when they connect to a session. This value is configured on the client system.

Configuration Task List for RADIUS

To authenticate users using RADIUS, at least one RADIUS server must be specified so that the system can
communicate with and configure RADIUS as one of your authentication methods.
The following list includes the configuration tasks for RADIUS.
• Define a aaa method list to be used for RADIUS on page 890
• Apply the method list to terminal lines on page 891
• Specify a RADIUS server host on page 891
• Set global communication parameters for all RADIUS server hosts on page 892
• Monitor RADIUS on page 893
For a complete listing of all FTOS commands related to RADIUS, refer to the Security chapter in the
FTOS Command Reference.
Note: RADIUS authentication and authorization are done in a single step. Hence, authorization cannot be
used independent of authentication. However, if RADIUS authorization is configured and authentication is
not, then a message is logged stating this. During authorization, the next method in the list (if present) is
used, or if another method is not present, an error is reported.
To view the configuration, use the
EXEC Privilege mode.
Define a AAA method list to be used for RADIUS
To configure RADIUS to authenticate or authorize users on the system, you must create a AAA method
list. Default method lists do not need to be explicitly applied to the line, so they are not mandatory. To
create a method list, enter one of the following commands in CONFIGURATION mode:
