D-Link DI-206 manual Adding Users to the Radius Database

DI-206 ISDN Remote Router

♦Type – Refers to the type of external password protocol. Currently, only Radius is supported.

♦Server IP Address – This is the IP Address of your UNIX or NT-based Radius server.

♦Port – The port number for the Radius server. The standard port number specified by RFC 1700 is 1812 (shown above).

♦Key – This is a shared secret used to identify the DI-206 as a valid Radius client.

The Key password should be stored in the client file in the RADIUS server’s /etc/raddb directory. Lines of the form

# Client Name	Key
#-----------------------------
192.168.0.1	dlink_customer

should be added to the client file. The Client Name field in the file gives the IP address of the DI-206, and the Key field should be the same as the Key field in the Radius Configuration submenu.

After a RADIUS server has been configured, the DI-206 will use it to authenticate all users instead of checking it’s internal Dial-Up User Profile.

Adding Users to the RADIUS Database

The DI-206 only uses the RADIUS database for user authentication. Except for the User Name, Password and Framed_IP_Address fields, most standard RADIUS attribute fields are ignored by the DI-206.

To add a user to the RADIUS database, edit the users file in the RADIUS server’s /etc/raddb directory, and add a line similar to the following:

joeuser Password = “joepassword”

Each user should have a user name/password record in the Users database. It is also possible to configure an IP address for each user by adding a line in the Users database similar to the following:

Ip user Password = “iusespecificip”, Framed_IP_Address = 192.168.0.117
