Creating RADIUS Peers

RADIUS peers are instances of RADIUS servers. If you define multiple servers, the SAE uses them in cases of failover or as alternate routers for load-balancing purposes.

Each RADIUS plug-in requires a default peer. Configure a RADIUS peer before you configure the plug-in.

RADIUS peers are configured in the peer group for each RADIUS plug-in. Use the following configuration statements to configure a RADIUS peer:
shared sae configuration plug-ins pool name radius-accounting peer-group name {
server-address server-address;
server-port server-port;
secret secret;
}
shared sae configuration plug-ins pool name radius-authentication peer-group name {
server-address server-address;

server-port server-port;

secret secret;
}
shared sae configuration plug-ins pool name custom-radius-accounting peer-group
name {
server-address server-address;
server-port server-port;
secret secret;
}
shared sae configuration plug-ins pool name custom-radius-authentication peer-group
name {
server-address server-address;

server-port server-port;

secret secret;
}
shared sae configuration plug-ins pool name flex-radius-accounting peer-group name {
server-address server-address;

server-port server-port;

secret secret;
}
shared sae configuration plug-ins pool name flex-radius-authentication peer-group
name {
server-address server-address;

server-port server-port;

secret secret;
}
To create a RADIUS peer:
From configuration mode, access the RADIUS peer configuration for the plug-in that you are configuring. In this sample procedure, the RADIUS peer is configured in the west-region SAE group.
user@host# edit shared sae group west-region configuration plug-ins pool
basicRadius radius-accounting peer-group peer1
Configure the IP address of the RADIUS server to which the SAE sends accounting data.
[edit shared sae group west-region configuration plug-ins pool basicRadius
radius-accounting peer-group peer1]
user@host# set server-address server-address
Configure the port used for RADIUS packets.
[edit shared sae group west-region configuration plug-ins pool basicRadius
radius-accounting peer-group peer1]
user@host# set server-port server-port
Configure the password that is shared with the RADIUS server. You must configure the same password on the RADIUS server.
[edit shared sae group west-region configuration plug-ins pool basicRadius
radius-accounting peer-group peer1]
user@host# set secret secret
(Optional) Verify your configuration.
[edit shared sae group west-region configuration plug-ins pool basicRadius
radius-accounting peer-group peer1]
user@host# show
server-address 10.10.1.1;
server-port 1812;
secret ********;
