Configuring a RADIUS Packet Template

There are two ways to define RADIUS packets for flexible RADIUS accounting and authentication plug-ins:

  • Define attributes in a template, and then apply the template to flexible RADIUS accounting and authentication plug-ins.
  • Define attributes in the packet definition configuration of a flexible plug-in instance. These definitions override definitions in packet templates.

To configure attributes in a template:

  1. Click Configure, expand Shared>SAE, and then expand the SAE group for which you want to configure a RADIUS template.
  2. To configure a new RADIUS accounting template:
    1. In the side pane, expand Configuration, and then click RADIUS Packet Template: stdAcct.

      The RADIUS Packet Template: stdAcct pane appears.

    2. From the Create new list, select RADIUS Attributes, type the RADIUS attribute name in the dialog box, and click OK.

      The new RADIUS accounting template appears in the side pane.

  3. To configure a new RADIUS authentication template:
    1. In the side pane, expand Configuration, and then click RADIUS Packet Template: stdAuth.

      The RADIUS Packet Template: stdAuth pane appears.

    2. From the Create new list, select RADIUS Attributes, type the RADIUS attribute name in the dialog box, and click OK.

      The new RADIUS authentication template appears in the side pane.
