9. Set the following Network Address Identifier (NAI) Routing settings:
10. Select the RADIUS Accounting tab.
FIGURE 10 AAA Policy - RADIUS Accounting tab
Request Attempts Specify the number of attempts a client can retransmit a missed frame to the RADIUS server before
it times out of the authentication session. The available range is from 1 - 10. The default is 3.
Request Timeout Specify the time from 1 - 60 seconds for the access point’s re-transmission of request packets. If
this time is exceeded, the authentication session is terminated. The default is 3 seconds.
Retry Timeout Factor Specify the time from 50 - 200 seconds between retry timeouts for the access points’s
re-transmission of request packets. The default is 100.
DSCP Specify the DSCP value as a 6-bit parameter in the header of every IP packet used for packet
classification. The valid range is from 0 - 63, with a default value of 46.
NAI Routing Enable Select this check box to enable NAI routing. AAA servers identify clients using the NAI. The NAI is a
character string in the format of an E-mail address as either user or user@ but it need not be a valid
E-mail address or a fully qualified domain name. 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. 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 dialup
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 for each user credential.
Realm Enter the realm name in the field. The name cannot exceed 64 characters. When the access point
RADIUS server receives a request for a user name the server references a table of user names. If
the user name is known, the server proxies the request to the RADIUS server.
Realm Type Specify the type of realm that is being used, either Prefix or Suffix.
Strip Realm Select this option to remove information from the packet when NAI routing is enabled.
