Chapter 14. Configuring the RADIUS Interface
XYPRO Technology Corporation 121 Proprietary and Confidential
The following entries are valid for the RADIUS_REQUIRE_PASSWORD keyword:
{ OFF | ON | }
OFF – The users are only presented with the RADIUS PASSWORD, when logging on.
ON – Users will be prompted for the NonStop password and then, if the password is
correct, the RADIUS prompt(s) will be presented. Validity of both is required for
successful logons.
If the answer to this question is YES, then RADIUS_REQUIRE_PASSWORD will be
set to ON in the UACONF file; otherwise, it will be set to OFF.
14.5 Running the RADIUS Install Macro
Now that you have designed your configuration, you can run the
XUA_RADIUS_INSTALL macro to configure the RADIUS interface.
All your responses to the Install macro will be recorded in the UACONF file in the form
of keywords using the values you enter at the prompts. If you have to change these
values, you can do so by modifying them in UACONF only after the macro run is
completed.
Note: The XUA_RADIUS_INSTALL macro is intended only to be used to configure the
initial environment and not for on-going maintenance. All keywords in the
UACONF file can be edited directly.
The following is an example of a macro run. After each prompt, you will find an
explanation of what each entered value achieves, as well as the keyword that will
represent this value in the UACONF file.
Example: Sample Execution of the XUA_RADIUS_INSTALL Macro
> RUN XUA INSTALL
> XUA_RADIUS_INSTALL
You will be asked a series of questions about configuring XYGATE/UA to interface
the RADIUS server. You may abort the install process at any prompt by hitting the
BREAK key.
Prompts that end with a string within angle brackets mean that just hitting the
return key will use that default value.
Do you want to configure the RADIUS interface <Y>?
The above prompt is asking you to confirm your intentions. If you answer N, the
macro will quit.
What is the DNS name or IP Address of the RADIUS server?
The RADIUS_HOST keyword in the UACONF file specifies the path to the RADIUS
server. This can be either the DNS name or the IP address.
