RADIUS

When RADIUS is selected, the Spider device communicates with a RADIUS server for user authentication. To access a Spider device set up for RADIUS, log in with a name and password. The Spider device contacts the RADIUS server for authentication and, if approved, the Spider device uses the locally stored user profile. If there is no such profile, access via RADIUS will be refused.

Field

Description

Server

Enter the name or IP address of the RADIUS server, reachable over the

 

network by the Spider device, containing the user database. Configure a

 

DNS server if a name rather than an address is used.

Shared Secret

A shared secret is a text string that serves as a password between the

 

RADIUS client and RADIUS server. In this case the Spider device acts as a

 

RADIUS client. A shared secret is used to verify that RADIUS messages are

 

sent by a RADIUS-enabled device that is configured with the same shared

 

secret and to verify that the RADIUS message has not been modified in

 

transit (message integrity).

 

Enter a maximum of 128 alphanumeric characters and symbols such as an

 

exclamation point (“!”) or an asterisk (“*”).

 

 

Authentication Port

The port the RADIUS server listens for authentication requests. The default

 

value is 1812.

Accounting Port

The port the RADIUS server listens for accounting requests. The default

 

value is 1813.

Timeout

Sets the request time-to-live in seconds. The time-to-live is the time to wait

 

for the completion of the authentication request. If the request job is not

 

completed within this interval of time it is cancelled. The default value is 1

 

second.

Retries

Sets the number of retries if a request could not be completed. The default

 

value is 3 times.
