This section provides some information on users who use an external authentication server in order to log in.

Setting up User Attributes in an External Server

To set up user attributes, such as reauthentication time, in LDAP or RADIUS servers, use the following keywords in the user configuration file.

Table 178 LDAP/RADIUS: Keywords for User Attributes

KEYWORD	CORRESPONDING ATTRIBUTE IN WEB CONFIGURATOR
type	User Type. Possible Values: admin, limited-admin, user, guest.
leaseTime	Lease Time. Possible Values: 1-1440 (minutes).
reauthTime	Reauthentication Time. Possible Values: 1-1440 (minutes).

The following examples show you how you might set up user attributes in LDAP and RADIUS servers.

reauthTime: 199

Figure 342 RADIUS Example: Keywords for User Attributes

Creating a Large Number of Ext-User Accounts

If you plan to create a large number of Ext-Useraccounts, you might use CLI commands, instead of the Web Configurator, to create the accounts. Extract the user names from the LDAP or RADIUS server, and create a shell script that creates the user accounts. See Chapter 47 on page 737 for more information about shell scripts.
