Element Description<br />

String Name of a RADIUS server<br />

Comment Plain-text comment on the RADIUS server<br />

Default domain name — Name of the domain that information is retrieved from if no other domain is<br />

specified<br />

Shared secret — Password used by the appliance to get access to the RADIUS server<br />

Radius connection timeout in seconds — Time (in seconds) to elapse before the connection to the<br />

RADIUS server is closed if no traffic occurs<br />

International text support — Set of characters used by default for a request sent from a client, for<br />

example, ISO-8859-1<br />

Value of attribute with code — Code value for the attribute retrieved with the user group<br />

information, according to RFC 2865<br />

For example, 25 is the code for the “class” attribute.<br />

Vendor specific attribute with vendor ID — Vendor ID for retrieving vendor-related data in the<br />

search for user group information<br />

According to RFC 2865, the vendor ID is a part of the vendor attribute, followed by a number of<br />

subattributes. Its code value is 26.<br />

Vendor subattribute type — Code value for the type of subattributes included in a vendor attribute.<br />

according to RFC 2865<br />

Since not all vendors adhere to this structure, it is recommended to specify 0 as value here. This allows<br />

the authentication module to retrieve all available vendor information.<br />
