server

Configures a RADIUS accounting server’s settings

preference

Configures the accounting server’s preference mode. Authentication requests are forwarded to a accounting
server, from the pool, based on the preference mode selected.

auth-server-host

Sets the authentication server as the accounting server
This parameter indicates the same server is used for authentication and accounting. The server is identified
by its hostname.

auth-server-number

Sets the authentication server as the accounting server
This parameter indicates the same server is used for authentication and accounting. The server is identified
by its index or number.

none

Indicates the accounting server is independent of the authentication server

server <1-6>

Configures an accounting server. Up to 6 accounting servers can be configured.

dscp <0-63>

Sets the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value for Quality of Service (QOS) monitoring. This value is
used in generated RADIUS packets.

<0-63> – Sets the DSCP value from 0 - 63

retry-timeout-factor
<50-200>

Sets the scaling factor for retransmission timeouts. The timeout at each attempt is a function of this
retry-timeout factor and the attempt number.

<50-200> – Specify a value from 50 - 200. The default is 100.

If the scaling factor is 100, the interval between two consecutive retries remains the same, irrespective of the
number of retries.
If the scaling factor is less than 100, the interval between two consecutive retires reduces with subsequent
retries.
If this scaling factor is greater than 100, the interval between two consecutive retries increases with
subsequent retries.

server <1-6>

Configures an accounting server. Up to 6 accounting servers can be configured.

host

Configures the accounting server’s hostname or IP address

secret
[0 |
2 |
]

Configures a common secret key used to authenticate with the accounting server

0 – Configures a clear text secret key

2 – Configures an encrypted secret key

– Specify the secret key. This shared secret should not exceed 127 characters.

port <1-65535>

Optional. Configures the accounting server’s UDP port (the port used to connect to the accounting server)

<1-65535> – Sets the port number from 1 - 65535 (default port is 1813)

server <1-6>

Configures an accounting server. Up to 6 accounting servers can be configured.

nai-routing

Enables Network Access Identifier (NAI) routing
The NAI is a character string in the format of an e-mail address as either user or user@ (it need not be a valid
e-mail address or a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). The NAI can be used either in a specific or generic
form. The specific form, which must contain the user portion and may contain the @ portion, identifies a
single user. The generic form allows to be configured on a single command line. Each user still needs a
unique security association, but these associations can be stored on a AAA server. The original purpose of NAI
was to support roaming between dial up ISPs. Using NAI, each ISP need not have all the accounts for all of its
roaming partners in a single RADIUS database. RADIUS servers can proxy requests to remote servers.
