AAA CONFIGURATION GUIDE

Configuring RADIUS

Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) is a uniform framework used

Authentication for

to configure the three functions for network security management. It can be

Telnet Users

implemented by multiple protocols.

 

RADIUS configurations are made in RADIUS schemes. When performing RADIUS

 

configurations, you first create a RADIUS scheme and then specify the IP addresses

 

and UDP port numbers of the RADIUS servers for the scheme. These RADIUS

 

servers include the primary and secondary authentication/authorization severs and

 

accounting servers. In addition, you need to configure the shared key and specify

 

the RADIUS server type.

 

In practice, you can configure the above parameters as required. But you should

 

configure at least one authentication/authorization server and one accounting

 

server. If no accounting server is needed, you must configure the accounting

 

optional command. Besides, the RADIUS server port settings on the switch must

 

be consistent with those on the RADIUS servers.

As shown in Figure 43, configure the switch so that Telnet users logging into the switch are authenticated remotely by the RADIUS server.

A RADIUS authentication server with an IP address of 10.110.91.164 is connected to the switch.

On the switch, set the shared key for exchanging messages with the authentication RADIUS server to aabbcc.

A CAMS server is used as the RADIUS server. Select extended as the server-type in the RADIUS scheme.

On the RADIUS server, set the shared key for exchanging messages with the switch to aabbcc, configure the authentication port number, and add Telnet
