RADIUS network authenticated login

RADIUS network authenticated login

RADIUS server configurations apply to administrative access accounts and client 802.1X authentication. RADIUS access-requests are supported, but RADIUS accounting messages are not. Up to five RADIUS servers can be added. The default RADIUS port 1812 is used and is not configurable.

Authenticating Administrative Access

RADIUS network authenticated logins allows the administrators to easily change all passwords by changing the password on the RADIUS server, simplifying management of a large network with multiple users.

To use RADIUS network authentication, you will need a properly configured RADIUS server (free RADIUS servers are available for Linux operating systems or fee-based server products are available on UNIX and Microsoft NOS).

RADIUS authenticated logins only support the “admin” user account privileges with the following exceptions:

The RADIUS account cannot disable RADIUS login support

The RADIUS account cannot change the built-in “Admin” password

Note: The “admin” account name is not reserved. You may create an “admin” account on the RADIUS server. If so, the T3 will first check the password against the local “admin” account password before trying the RADIUS server. Unless there is a special reason to do so, we recommend not using an “admin” account on the RADIUS server

Authenticating Clients using 802.1X

To use RADIUS authentication, the server must support 802.1X protocol and a supported EAP type. Supported EAP types are TLS, TTLS, and PEAPv0 (also known simply as PEAP)

Configure the RADIUS Server

To create a RADIUS server configuration from the CLI, use the following command:

radius server config <1-5(index)><ip-address #.#.#.#> <shared-secret string> <timeout 1-10> <retries 1-120>

Options

Index

ip-address

shared-secret

Timeout

Retries

Description

5 RADIUS servers can be added. Authentication will be performed starting with the server in index 1

IP address of the RADIUS server

This is the password used by the RADIUS server to authentication the Access-Request packets from the Tut OS

Number of seconds to wait after sending an Access-Request packet before sending another request or trying another server. Practical timeout value is 5 seconds.

Number of retries before giving up and trying a different server. A practical entry for retries is 2 to 3.
