Settings

You can use a RADIUS server to determine the validity of unknown user ID/password pairs in your IAD. To use a RADIUS server, set the following options:

Change the primary or secondary RADIUS Server Address Change the primary or secondary RADIUS Encryption Secret

￿Display RADIUS Configuration

NOTE Verilink does not provide a RADIUS server. You must provide a RADIUS server to use this feature. For more information on RADIUS servers, see RFC 2865.

If you configure a RADIUS server, the IAD must be able to successfully connect to the RADIUS Server. This requires WAN configuration, IP configuration, static or default routes and other configurations for your network. Additionally, you must use a RADIUS-authenticated user ID/ password for Telnet access. If the RADIUS server becomes inoperative, Telnet access will not work.

1.On the Main menu, type 8 (Configure Login) to display the Password Configuration menu (page 25).

2.Type 5 to select Change Primary RADIUS Server Address or Type 7 to select Change Secondary RADIUS Server Address.

3.Type the IP address in one of the following formats and press Enter: IP address

￿Fully-qualified host and domain names

(for example: radius.Verilink.com—maximum 42 bytes)

NOTE If you enter host and domain names, you must configure the IAD as a DNS client (page 114).
