RADIUS Accounting Attributes (RFC 2139)
The following RADIUS accounting attributes are supported in the Digi PortServer TS 8/16.
How RADIUS Works
Here is how authentication works when PortServer TS 8/16 is configured for RADIUS:
1. A user logs into PortServer TS 8/16.
2. PortServer TS 8/16 collects login information and then checks to see if the user is in the local
database of users.
3. If the user is in the local database, PortServer TS 8/16 handles authentication.
4. If the user is not in the local database, PortServer TS 8/16 submits an authentication request to
the RADIUS server.
5. The RADUIS server does one of the following:
• If the user is validated, it passes this information to other devices and the user is permitted
access.
• If the user is not validated, the RADIUS server returns an access reject message to PortS-
erver TS 8/16, which then de nies access to the user.
Configuring RADIUS: Web Interface
Use this section for information on configuring PortServer TS 8/16 as a RADIUS client from the
web interface.
1. Access the web interface by entering the PortServer TS 8/16 IP address in a browser’s URL win-
dow.
2. Log in to the PortServer TS 8/16 as root.
The default password is dbps.
3. From the main menu, choose Configure > RADUIS.
4. Configure the RADIUS client as required. Use the online help for information on configuration
fields.
5. When you complete configuration, choose Submit.
