Table 60 Supported VSAs

FUNCTION

ATTRIBUTE

 

 

Egress Bandwidth

Vendor-Id = 890

Assignment

Vendor-Type = 2

 

Vendor-data = egress rate (Kbps in decimal format)

Privilege Assignment

Vendor-ID = 890

 

Vendor-Type = 3

 

Vendor-Data = "shell:priv-lvl=N"

 

or

 

Vendor-ID = 9 (CISCO)

 

Vendor-Type = 1 (CISCO-AVPAIR)

 

Vendor-Data = "shell:priv-lvl=N"

 

where N is a privilege level (from 0 to 14).

 

Note: If you set the privilege level of a login account differently

 

on the RADIUS server(s) and the Switch, the user is

 

assigned a privilege level from the database (RADIUS or

 

local) the Switch uses first for user authentication.

 

 

22.2.4.1 Tunnel Protocol Attribute

You can configure tunnel protocol attributes on the RADIUS server (refer to your RADIUS server documentation) to assign a port on the Switch to a VLAN based on IEEE 802.1x authentication. The port VLAN settings are fixed and untagged. This will also set the port’s VID. The following table describes the values you need to configure. Note that the bolded values in the table are fixed values as defined in RFC 3580.

Table 61 Supported Tunnel Protocol Attribute

FUNCTIONATTRIBUTE

VLAN Assignment Tunnel-Type = VLAN(13)

Tunnel-Medium-Type = 802(6)

Tunnel-Private-Group-ID = VLAN ID

Note: You must also create a VLAN with the specified VID on the Switch.

22.3 Supported RADIUS Attributes

Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) attributes are data used to define specific authentication, and accounting elements in a user profile, which is stored on the RADIUS server. This appendix lists the RADIUS attributes supported by the Switch.

Refer to RFC 2865 for more information about RADIUS attributes used for authentication. Refer to RFC 2866 and RFC 2869 for RADIUS attributes used for accounting.

This section lists the attributes used by authentication and accounting functions on the Switch. In cases where the attribute has a specific format associated with it, the format is specified.
