Examples using Vendor Specific Attributes

Vendor Specific Attributes (VSAs) can be used instead of the Service-Type attributes
provided by your RADIUS server. This method requires a dictionary entry and a
RADIUS users file. In the dictionary file, you can define the names for the ATTRIBUTE
and VALUE keywords, but not the numeric values. If you change the numeric values,
RADIUS authentication and authorization will not work correctly. VSAs take
precedence over standard RADIUS attributes.

Dictionary file.

Following is an example of a RADIUS dictionary file (dictionary.dell):

#

# dictionary.dell

#

#

VENDOR DELL 318

#

# Attributes

#

ATTRIBUTE DELL-Service-Type 1 integer DELL

ATTRIBUTE DELL-Outlets 2 string DELL

VALUE DELL-Service-Type Admin 1

VALUE DELL-Service-Type Device 2

VALUE DELL-Service-Type ReadOnly 3

#

# For devices with outlet users only

#

VALUE DELL-Service-Type Outlet 4
