Specifying a security policy server
The core of the HP EAD solution is integration and cooperation, and the security policy server is the
management and control center. Using a collection of software, the security policy server provides
functions such as user management, security policy management, security status assessment, security
cooperation control, and security event audit.
The NAS checks the validity of received control packets and accepts only control packets from known
servers. To use a security policy server that is independent of the AAA servers, you must configure the IP
address of the security policy server on the NAS. To implement all EAD functions, configure both the IP
address of the IMC security policy server and that of the IMC configuration platform on the NAS.
Follow these steps to specify a security policy server:

Configuring interpretation of RADIUS class attribute as CAR
parameters
According to RFC 2865, a RADIUS server assigns the RADIUS class attribute (attribute 25) to a RADIUS
client. However, the RFC only requires the RADIUS client to send the attribute to the accounting server on
an “as is” basis; it does not require the RADIUS client to interpret the attribute. Some RADIUS servers use
the class attribute to deliver the assigned committed access rate (CAR) parameters. In this case, the LB
module must interpret the attribute as the CAR parameters to implement user-based traffic monitoring and
controlling.
Follow these steps to configure the RADIUS client to interpret the class attribute as the CAR parameters:
