AppleTalk Protocol

Required for AppleTalk

Generally, there are no required changes from the shipping Ethernet configuration for AppleTalk. The Ethernet interface will autoconfigure to use AppleTalk Phase 2, and will adapt to conditions on the Ethernet.

Suggested for AppleTalk

You may want to set your own network numbers, rather than using the autoconfigured values. You may also want to use more meaningful zone names.

CV: Use the AppleTalk Routing: Ethernet 0 dialog box.

TB: Use configure and set keywords in the AppleTalk Phase 2 Ethernet 0 section.

Setting up RADIUS Authentication

If you are using a RADIUS server for user authentication, you must set up the IntraPort to communicate with a RADIUS server and also set some special parameters in the RADIUS server itself

Setting the IntraPort for a RADIUS Server

Just a few basic settings are required for the IntraPort to communicate with a RADIUS server.

Primary server IP address

Secret

VPN password attribute number

VPN group attribute number

CV: Use the RADIUS Configuration dialog box. Select Global in the dialog box, then select RADIUS Configuration.

TB: Use the configure command and set the PrimAddress, Secret, VPNPassword and VPNGroupInfo keywords in the RADIUS

section.
