    Specifying RADIUS Options in an AAA Profile

    When configuring an authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) profile on the MobileNext Broadband Gateway, you can optionally specify values for a number of RADIUS attributes that the broadband gateway includes in the RADIUS messages it generates. You can specify a value for the NAS IP address attribute (RADIUS attribute 4), a prefix to be used with the NAS Identifier attribute (RADIUS attribute 32), and a value for the NAS Port Type attribute (RADIUS attribute 61).

    To specify RADIUS options:

    1. Specify a value for the nas-ip-address option. If this option is specified, the broadband gateway uses this IP address as the value for RADIUS attribute 4 (NAS-IP-Address) in RADIUS requests; otherwise, the broadband gateway uses the IP address set in the source-interface statement in the RADIUS server configuration.

    2. Specify a value for the nas-identifier-prefix option. When this option is specified, the broadband gateway appends the ID of the services PIC to the nas-identifier-prefix value, and uses the combined prefix and services PIC ID as the value for RADIUS attribute 32 (NAS-Identifier) in RADIUS requests. If the services PICs are part of a redundancy group, the broadband gateway appends the aggregated multiservices interface (ams) ID to the prefix instead of the services PIC ID.

    3. Specify a value for the nas-port-type option. In an AAA profile, you can specify a NAS port type of virtual or wireless. The broadband gateway uses this as the value for RADIUS attribute 61 (NAS-Port-Type) in RADIUS requests. The default is virtual.
