RADIUS Attribute Dictionary
RADIUS attribute dictionary defines Huawei proprietary private RADIUS attributes (including attribute number, attribute name, and attribute type) and Huwei vendor ID. When a Huawei device connects to a RADIUS server, the RADIUS server can correctly identify and process Huawei-defined RADIUS attributes after loading the attribute dictionary file. Different products of the same vendor may use the same attribute number to represent different attribute values. Therefore, private RADIUS attributes cannot be loaded on the same RADIUS server.
The following example describes how to install the freeRADIUS server of the Linux SUSE 12.
