Adding Role Attributes

RADIUS attributes form the heart of the role-based access control system. Different user roles may have
different attributes associated with them, which allows you to control the behavior of network access
devices that authenticate users with the RADIUS server. Furthermore, you can associate a set of rules
called a condition with each RADIUS attribute. This allows you to make adjustments to the precise
definition of a role depending on what kind of access is being requested.
To open the RADIUS Attribute Editor:
1. Do one of the following:
To add or edit attributes for an existing role, go to RADIUS > User Roles. Click the role's name in

the list, then click its Edit link. The RADIUS Role Editor opens.
To add attributes when you create the role, go to RADIUS > User Roles, then click the

new role link. The RADIUS Role Editor form opens.
2. In the RADIUS Attributes row, click the
RADIUS Attribute Editor.
You can choose to use either the Standard RADIUS attributes that are applicable to all vendors or to use the
attributes particular to your vendor.
If you want to use the vendor specific attributes, select the vendor from the drop down list. The available
attributes for the selected vendor will be displayed in the drop-down list for the Attribute field.
Additional vendors and attributes may be defined in the RADIUS Dictionary. See
information in this chapter.
