User Attributes & Permissions from LDAP Schema or RADIUS VSA

Remote user attributes (group/permissions and port access) can be obtained from an Active Directory server's schema via the user attribute 'secureLinxSLCPerms', or from a RADIUS server's Vendor-Specific Attribute (see below). This attribute is a set of parameter-value pairs. Each parameter and value is separated by a space, and a space separates each parameter-value pair. Whitespace is not supported in the value strings. The parameters that are supported are:

rights - User rights. The value string is a comma-separated list of two letter user permissions. Example: "nt,wb,ra".

data - Data port access. The value string specifies the list of ports the user has 'direct' access to. Example: "2,4-18,U1,U2".

listen - Listen port access. The value string specifies the list of ports the user has 'listen' access to.

clear - Clear port access. The value string specifies the list of port buffers the user has the right to clear.

group - User group. Valid values for the value string are "default", "power", and "admin", and any SLC custom group name. If a custom group name is specified and it matches a current SLC custom group name, any rights attribute will be ignored, and the custom group's rights (permissions) will be used instead. A group name with spaces cannot be specified.

escseq - Escape sequence. The value string specifies the user's escape sequence. Use "\x" to specify non-printable characters. For example, "\x1bA" specifies the sequence "ESC-A".

brkseq - Break sequence. The value string specifies the user's break sequence.

menu - Custom user menu. The value string specifies the user's custom user menu.

display - Display custom user menu when a user logs into the CLI. Valid values for the value string are "yes" and "no".

dbnumber - Dial-back number. The value string specifies the user's dial-back number for modem dial-back connections.

allowdb - Allow a user to have dial-back access. Valid values for the value string are "yes" and "no".

RADIUS servers will need to be configured to support the Lantronix Vendor-Specific Attribute. For example, on a FreeRADIUS server, the dictionary will need be updated with the Lantronix definition by including the contents below in a file named dictionary.lantronix, and including it in the RADIUS server dictionary definitions by adding the appropriate $INCLUDE directive to the main dictionary file.
