Chapter 14. Configuring the RADIUS
Interface
XYGATEUA interfaces to the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS)
protocol for logging on to TACL on the HP NonStop server. This chapter describes the
steps required to configure the RADIUS interface.
14.1 Configuration Steps
To configure the RADIUS interface, there are five basic steps:
1. Prepare the NonStop system for authentication via RADIUS (section 14.3).
2. Review the considerations for RADIUS configuration (section 14.4).
3. Run the XUA_ RADIUS_INSTALL host macro to prepare XUA for communication
with the RADIUS server (section 14.5).
4. Edit the UAACL file to implement the RADIUS authentication and mapping
(section 14.6).
5. Test the XUA interface to the RADIUS server and user name mapping
(section 14.8).
14.2 RADIUS-Related UACONF Keywords
This section lists the keywords in the UACONF file required to configure the password
verification via RADIUS technology. The keywords are described in Appendix A:
starting on page 238 and are created in the UACONF file only by the
XUA_RADIUS_INSTALL macro described in section 14.5 starting on page 121.
Important! Do not manually add the RADIUS authentication keywords to the
UACONF file. These keywords are provided here for reference and updating
instructions only.
