Figure 127. Authentication window
2. On the
Authentication
page, define values for the parameters as follows:
–
Validation: Select
staticThenRadius(4)
or
radiusUsers(2)
.
Note
We recommend you select
staticThenRadius
then add a static user to the
RAS’s user database. This will provide you an alternate login method so
you can still manage your RAS if RADIUS authentication should fail.
–
Host Address: Enter the IP address of your RADIUS server.
–
Secondary Host Address: Enter the IP address of your fallback RADIUS server, if you have one. Other-
wise, leave blank.
–
Host Port: Enter the UDP Port number your RADIUS server uses to receive authentication requests
(typically 1645 or 1812).
Note
The primary and secondary RADIUS server will use the same port
number.
–
Timeout: 2 is the default value; leave it alone unless you know better.
–
Retries: 3 is the default value; leave it alone unless you know better
–
Secret: Enter the secret from your RAS client profile on your RADIUS server.
–
NAS Identifier: Optional. You may enter the IP address or ‘friendly name’ of your RAS as defined in
your RADIUS server’s client list.
