Setup Guide

• The administrator changes the idle-time of the line on which the user has logged in.
• The idle-time is lower than the RADIUS-returned idle-time.
ACL Conguration Information
The RADIUS server can specify an ACL. If an ACL is congured on the RADIUS server, and if that ACL is present, the user may be allowed
access based on that ACL.
If the ACL is absent, authorization fails, and a message is logged indicating this.
RADIUS can specify an ACL for the user if both of the following are true:
• If an ACL is absent.
• If there is a very long delay for an entry, or a denied entry because of an ACL, and a message is logged.
NOTE: The ACL name must be a string. Only standard ACLs in authorization (both RADIUS and TACACS) are supported.
Authorization is denied in cases using Extended ACLs.
Auto-Command
You can congure the system through the RADIUS server to automatically execute a command when you connect to a specic line.
The auto-command command is executed when the user is authenticated and before the prompt appears to the user.
• Automatically execute a command.

Privilege Levels
Through the RADIUS server, you can congure a privilege level for the user to enter into when they connect to a session.
This value is congured on the client system.
• Set a privilege level.

Conguration Task List for RADIUS
To authenticate users using RADIUS, you must specify at least one RADIUS server so that the system can communicate with and congure
RADIUS as one of your authentication methods.
The following list includes the conguration tasks for RADIUS.
• Dening a AAA Method List to be Used for RADIUS (mandatory)
• Applying the Method List to Terminal Lines (mandatory except when using default lists)
• Specifying a RADIUS Server Host (mandatory)
• Setting Global Communication Parameters for all RADIUS Server Hosts (optional)
• Monitoring RADIUS (optional)
For a complete listing of supported RADIUS commands, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference
Guide.
NOTE
: RADIUS authentication and authorization are done in a single step. Hence, authorization cannot be used independent of
authentication. However, if you have congured RADIUS authorization and have not congured authentication, a message is
logged stating this. During authorization, the next method in the list (if present) is used, or if another method is not present, an
error is reported.
