Importing RADIUS Configurations

You can import RADIUS configuration records from another JUNOScope server. You can import any valid XML file.

Importing RADIUS configuration information is useful when you do not want to add RADIUS configuration records manually.

To import RADIUS configuration records, follow these steps:

1. Log in to JUNOScope with superuser permissions.
2. Click Settings >RADIUS Configuration. The RADIUS Configuration dialog box appears.
3. Click Import. The Import RADIUS Configuration dialog box appears.
4. Click Browse and navigate to where the radiusClients RADIUS configuration file is located.
5. Type the key to decrypt the sensitive authentication information data that you want to import. The key is required if you selected not to include it when the data was exported. This key can be up to 16 characters long and was created during the JUNOScope installation.
6. To support synchronizing JUNOScope settings imported from multiple servers, select an import method to be used if a conflict occurs between existing records stored in the JUNOScope server and imported records. The available import method options include:
   • Ignore—(Default) An existing record stored in the JUNOScope server takes precedence over any imported record. The imported record is ignored and the existing record is not affected. Any imported record that does not exist in the JUNOScope server is inserted.
   • Merge—If a record exists in the JUNOScope server and also exists in the imported record, the imported record merges with the existing record and is augmented as necessary. If an imported record is in conflict with an existing record, the imported record takes precedence over the existing record. The existing record is merged with the imported record; however, the fields of imported record take precedence over the fields of the existing record. Any imported record that does not exist in the JUNOScope server is inserted.
   • Override—All records in the JUNOScope server are deleted, then all imported records are inserted. Before the override operation occurs, a message window appears with the following confirmation prompt: “ The import with override option will delete all the existing records. Do you want to continue?” Select Yes or No to continue.
7. Double-click the radiusClients RADIUS configuration file.
8. The Import/Export Data dialog box appears confirming successful import of the RADIUS configuration records.

   The Import/Export Data dialog box displays the RADIUS configuration records that have been successfully imported, how many records are duplicates, how many records did not import successfully, and any error descriptions.

9. Click OK. The imported RADIUS configuration records appear in the RADIUS Configuration dialog box.
