RADIUS

Procedure

• Configure a RADIUS server profile.
  • Create a RADIUS server profile.
    1. Choose Configuration > Security Services > AAA and click the RADIUS tab, as shown in Figure 1.

    2. Click Create in RADIUS Server Profile to open the Create RADIUS Server Profile page, as shown in Figure 2.
       Figure 2 Create RADIUS Server Profile page
       
       
       Table 1 describes the parameters on the page.

       Table 1 Parameters for creating a RADIUS server profile

       Parameter	Description
       Profile name	Name of a RADIUS server profile.
       STA HT Mode	Active/Standby mode: When multiple RADIUS authentication or accounting servers are configured, the server with the highest weight becomes the active server, and the other servers are backup servers. Among the backup servers, the servers with a higher weight have a higher priority. Load balancing mode: When multiple RADIUS authentication or accounting servers are configured, user authentication or accounting requests are sent to the servers based on the weight proportion of each server.
       NAS IP address	NAS-IP-Address attribute of RADIUS packets sent by the device.
       Profile default shared key	RADIUS shared key.
       NAS Identifier mode	Encapsulation format of the NAS-Identifier attribute. Device Host Name: Sets the encapsulation format of NAS-Identifier to a user's host name. User VLAN ID: Sets the encapsulation format of NAS-Identifier to a user's VLAN ID. AP MAC: Sets the encapsulation format of NAS-Identifier to the AP's MAC address.
       User name format in packets	User name format in packets sent from the device to the RADIUS server. Original user name: The device does not modify the user name entered by the user in the packets sent to the RADIUS server. With domain name: The device encapsulates the domain name in the user name when sending RADIUS packets to the RADIUS server. Without domain name: The device does not encapsulate the domain name in the user name when sending RADIUS packets to the RADIUS server.
       MAC address format in Calling-Station-Id	Encapsulation format of the MAC address in the Calling-Station-ID attribute of RADIUS packets.
       Called-Station-ID format	Content encapsulated in the Called-Station-ID attribute of RADIUS packets.
       Separator	Separator before the SSID encapsulated in the Called-Station-ID attribute. This parameter is supported only when Containing the SSID is selected.
       MAC address format in Called-Station-Id	Encapsulation format of the MAC address in the Called-Station-ID attribute of RADIUS packets. This parameter is supported only when Called-Station-ID format is set to AP MAC or AC MAC.

    3. On the Create RADIUS Server Profile page, click Create Server. The Create Server Configuration page is displayed, as shown in Figure 3.
       Figure 3 Create Server Configuration page
       
       
       Table 2 describes the parameters on the page.

       Table 2 Parameters for creating a server

       Parameter	Description
       IP address	IP address of a RADIUS server.
       Shared key	Shared key of the RADIUS server.
       Server Settings The following parameters are valid only when Authentication is selected.
       Port number	Port number of the authentication server.
       Weight	Weight of the authentication server.
       Source address of outgoing packets	Source IP address of the RADIUS authentication server.
       Server Settings The following parameters are valid only when Accounting is selected.
       Port number	Port number of the accounting server.
       Weight	Weight of the accounting server.
       Source address of outgoing packets	Source IP address of the accounting server.

    4. Set parameters for the RADIUS server.

    4. Click OK.

• Configure an authorization server.
  • Create an authorization server.
    1. Choose Configuration > Security Services > AAA and click the RADIUS tab.
    2. Click Create in Authorization Server to open the Create Authorization Server page, as shown in Figure 4.
