Authorization
Methods
Primary
Server Type
Select the authorization server type for PPP users.
• None—No authorization exchange is performed. Every
user is trusted and has the corresponding default rights of
the system.
• Local—Uses local authorization.
• RADIUS—Uses RADIUS authorization.
• HWTACACS—Uses HWTACACS authorization.
• If you do not select any authorization method, the default
authorization method of the ISP domain is used, which is
Local by default.
Scheme
Scheme for the primary authorization method, which is
displayed when you select HWTACACS or RADIUS as the
server type. The scheme is always system.
Backup Specify whether to enable the backup authorization method.
Accounting
Methods
Accounting Optional
Specify whether to enable the accounting optional function.
• For an online user, with the accounting optional function
disabled, if no accounting server is available or
communication with the current accounting server fails, the
user is disconnected. However, with the accounting
optional function enabled, the user can still use the network
resources in such case, but the system will not send the
accounting information of the user to the accounting server
any more.
Primary
Server Type
Select the accounting server type for PPP users.
• None—The system does not perform accounting for the
users.
• Local—Uses local accounting.
• RADIUS—Uses RADIUS accounting.
• HWTACACS—Uses HWTACACS accounting.
• If you do not select any accounting method, the default
accounting method of the ISP domain is used, which is
Local by default.
Scheme
Scheme for the primary accounting method, which is
displayed when you select HWTACACS or RADIUS as the
server type. The scheme is always system.
Backup Specify whether to enable the backup accounting method.
Max. Number of Users
Specify the maximum number of users the ISP domain can
accommodate. If you do not specify the maximum number, the
system will not limit the number of users of the ISP domain.
As users might compete for resources, setting a proper limit on
the number of users of an ISP domain helps guarantee
performance for the users of the ISP domain.
