Configuring Interaction Between the Broadband Gateway and RADIUS Servers
You specify the RADIUS servers that the MobileNext Broadband Gateway can use, and you configure how the broadband gateway interacts with the servers. After the RADIUS servers are configured, you can include them in network elements.
To specify a RADIUS server and how the broadband gateway interacts with the server:
- Configure the name of the RADIUS server.[edit]user@host# edit access radius servers radius1
- Configure the IP address of the RADIUS server.[edit access radius servers radius-server-name]user@host# set address 172.16.0.20
- Configure an interface and IP address to specify the source
address for RADIUS requests. The broadband gateway sends RADIUS requests
to the RADIUS server using this source address.[edit access radius servers radius-server-name]user@host# set source-interface lo0.0 ipv4-address 10.10.10.10
- Configure the required secret (password) to use with the
RADIUS server for authentication. Secrets enclosed in quotation marks
can contain spaces.[edit access radius servers radius-server-name]user@host# set secret nt1UE1*7688+
- (Optional) Configure the port number the broadband gateway
uses for RADIUS authentication. The default port number is 1812.[edit access radius servers radius-server-name]user@host# set port 1812
- (Optional) Configure the shared secret to be used for
RADIUS accounting. If you do not specify a shared secret for accounting,
the shared secret configured for RADIUS authentication is used for
accounting.[edit access radius servers radius-server-name]user@host# set accounting-secret xp1UE1*4852+
- (Optional) Configure the RADIUS server accounting port
number. The default accounting port number is 1813.[edit access radius servers radius-server-name]user@host# set accounting-port 1813
- (Optional) Configure the number of times that the broadband
gateway attempts to contact the RADIUS server. You can specify from
1 to 10 retries. The default setting is 3 retry attempts.[edit access radius servers radius-server-name]user@host# set retry 4
- (Optional) Configure the length of time that the broadband
gateway waits to receive a response from a RADIUS server. By default,
the broadband gateway waits 3 seconds. You can configure the timeout
to be from 1 through 90 seconds.[edit access radius servers radius-server-name]user@host# set timeout 45
