Chapter 3 Network Configuration

Configuring Proxy Distribution Tables

Step 5 From the Strip list, select Yes to strip the character string from the username that you entered, or select No to leave it.

Step 6 In the AAA Servers column, select the AAA server that you want to use for proxy. Click the -->(right arrow button) to move it to the Forward To column.

Tip You can also select additional AAA servers to use for backup proxy if the prior servers fail. To set the order of AAA servers, in the Forward To column, click the name of the applicable server and click Up or Down to move it into the position that you want.

Tip If the AAA server that you want to use is not listed, choose Network Configuration > AAA Servers. Then, choose Add Entry and complete the applicable information.

Step 7 From the Send Accounting Information list, select one of the following areas to which to report accounting information:

Local—Keep accounting packets on the local ACS.

Remote—Send accounting packets to the remote ACS.

Local/Remote—Keep accounting packets on the local ACS and send them to the remote ACS.

Tip This information is especially important if you are using the Max Sessions feature to control the number of connections that a user is allowed. Max Sessions depends on accounting start and stop records, and where the accounting information is sent determines where the Max Sessions counter is tracked. The Failed Attempts log and the Logged in Users report are also affected by where the accounting records are sent. See Remote Use of Accounting Packets, page 3-5for an example.

Step 8 When you finish, click Submit or Submit + Apply.

Sorting the Character String Match Order of Distribution Entries

You can use this procedure to set the priority by which ACS searches character string entries in the Proxy Distribution Table when users dial in.

To determine the order by which ACS searches entries in the Proxy Distribution Table:

Step 1 In the navigation bar, click Network Configuration.

The Network Configuration page opens.

Step 2 Below the Proxy Distribution Table, click Sort Entries.

Tip Before you sort the entries, you must configure at least two unique Proxy Distribution Table entries in addition to the (Default) table entry.
