7: Configuring the CCU

Figure 48 RADIUS Configuration - LMS4000 Wireless Application

In the LMS4000 wireless application, the RADIUS client is the CCU which, in many ways, can

also be considered a “modem bank”. The links that are being controlled are the “always on”

connections between the EUMs and the CCU. These links correspond to, and are managed

on the basis of EUMIDs, rather than by user passwords, which do not need to be provided by

the end users. Since the RADIUS messages require a user password, the CCU uses a fixed

string, “buywavc”. The username is the EUMID, a string in the form of XX:XX:XX (for example,

61:23:45). Entries in the list of LMS4000 users on the RADIUS server will have the EUMID as

the username, “buywavc” as the user password, and the vendor-specific option, “WaveRider-

Grade-of-Service”, depending on the grade of service subscribed to by the user. The link

between the CCU and the RADIUS server is protected by a shared secret password that is

entered on the CCU using the

auth radius primary or auth radius secondary

command.

Although there are many makes and models of RADIUS servers, each with their own user

interface and terminology, each will require the entry of the following:

• Dictionary entries for vendor specific attributes (i.e. WaveRider LMS4000 Grade-Of-

Service Attributes).

• RADIUS Client (i.e. CCU) IP Address

• Shared Secret Password

You will also need to enter EUMIDs in the RADIUS database. Each entry will have the

following attributes:

RADIUS Server

EUM3000

End-user Computer

CCU3000
