In addition, AAA provides the following services for login users to enhance device security:
• Command authorization—Enables the NAS to defer to the authorization server to determine
whether a command entered by a login user is permitted for the user, ensuring that login users
execute only commands they are authorized to execute. For more information about command
authorization, see Getting Started Guide.
• Command accounting—Allows the accounting server to record all commands executed on the
device or all authorized commands successfully executed. For more information about command
accounting, see Getting Started Guide.
You can configure different authentication, authorization, and accounting methods for different users in
a domain. See “Configuring AAA methods for ISP domains.“

RADIUS attributes
Commonly used standard RADIUS attributes
Table 43 Commonly used standard RADIUS attributes
No. Attribute Descri
p
tion
1 User-Name Name of the user to be authenticated.
2 User-Password
User password for PAP authentication, present only in Access-Request packets in
PAP authentication mode.
3 CHAP-Password
Digest of the user password for CHAP authentication, present only in
Access-Request packets in CHAP authentication mode.
4 NAS-IP-Address
IP address for the server to identify a client. Usually, a client is identified by the IP
address of the access interface of the NAS, namely the NAS IP address. This
attribute is present in only Access-Request packets.
5 NAS-Port Physical port of the NAS that the user accesses.
6 Service-Type Type of service that the user has requested or type of service to be provided.
7 Framed-Protocol Encapsulation protocol for framed access.
8 Framed-IP-Address IP address assigned to the user.
11 Filter-ID Name of the filter list.
12 Framed-MTU
Maximum transmission unit (MTU) for the data link between the user and NAS.
For example, with 802.1X EAP authentication, NAS uses this attribute to notify
the server of the MTU for EAP packets, so as to avoid oversized EAP packets.
14 Login-IP-Host IP address of the NAS interface that the user accesses.
