Item Descri
p
tion
VPN
Specify the VPN to which the RADIUS scheme belongs.
This setting is effective to all RADIUS authentication servers and accounting
servers configured in the RADIUS scheme, but the VPN individually specified
for a RADIUS authentication or accounting server takes priority.
Security Policy Server Specify the IP address of the security policy server.
RADIUS Packet Source IP
Specify the source IP address for the device to use in RADIUS packets sent to
the RADIUS server.
The source IP address of RADIUS packets that a NAS sends must match the IP
address of the NAS configured on the RADIUS server. A RADIUS server
identifies a NAS by its IP address.
Usually, the source address of outgoing RADIUS packets can be the IP
address of the NAS's any interface that can communicate with the RADIUS
server. In some special scenarios, however, you must change the source IP
address. For example, if a NAT device is present between the NAS and the
RADIUS server, the source IP address of outgoing RADIUS packets must be a
public IP address of the NAS. If the NAS is configured with VRRP for stateful
failover, the source IP address of outgoing RADIUS packets can be the virtual
IP address of the VRRP group to which the uplink belongs.
If you do not specify this source IP address, the IP address of the outbound
interface specified by the route is used.
IMPORTANT:
This source IP address and the RADIUS server IP address specified in the
RADIUS scheme must be of the same version. Otherwise, the configuration
cannot take effect.
Buffer stop-accounting packets
Enable or disable buffering of stop-accounting requests for which no
responses are received.
Stop-Accounting Attempts
Set the maximum number of stop-accounting attempts.
The maximum number of stop-accounting attempts, together with some other
parameters, controls how the NAS deals with stop-accounting request
packets.
Suppose that the RADIUS server response timeout period is 3 seconds, the
maximum number of transmission attempts is five, and the maximum number
of stop-accounting attempts is 20. For each stop-accounting request, if the
device receives no response within 3 seconds, it retransmits the request. If it
receives no responses after retransmitting the request five times, it considers
the stop-accounting attempt a failure, buffers the request, and makes another
stop-accounting attempt. If 20 consecutive attempts fail, the device discards
the request.
Send accounting-on packets
Enable or disable the accounting-on feature.
The accounting-on feature enables a device to send accounting-on packets to
RADIUS servers after it reboots, making the servers forcedly log out users
who logged in through the device before the reboot.
IMPORTANT:
When enabling the accounting-on feature on a device for the first time, you
must save the configuration so that the feature takes effect after the device
reboots.
Accounting-On Interval
Set the interval for sending accounting-on packets. This field is configurable
only when the Send accounting-on packets box is selected.
