All changes won't take effect until the server is restarted. So after changing the State to ‘On” and selecting OK or Apply, the
modifications are completed and the tool displays the following message:
FIGURE 9 Message - RADIUS Configured, need to Restart
Note: When RADIUS is activated or deactivated, the NMS server is shut down. It must then be restarted.
Once RADIUS authentication is enabled, the only users that can log in are the ones previously defined in the RADIUS
server(s).
4.8.2.2 Command Line Mode
The AT_ConfigureRadius tool can also be used in a command line mode, which is useful in a non-windowing environment,
such as Solaris without X-Windows. Command line mode is invoked by running the tool from the command with one or
more arguments, as demonstrated by the help command:
./AT_ConfigureRadius.sh help
help
print
add [pos] server authport acctport secret
remove server
enable
disable
• Print displays the current configuration.
• Add adds a new server with the specified authport, accounting port, and secret. The optional pos argument allows
specifying a position in the list of servers.
• Remove removes the specified server.
• Enable enables RADIUS authentication and disable disables it.
The following is an example session:
$ ./AT_ConfigureRadius.sh add 10.52.18.78 1645 1646 nmssecret
RADIUS Authentication State=DISABLED
Server Auth Port Acct Port Secret
----------- --------- --------- ---------
10.52.18.79 1812 1814 nmssecret
10.52.18.78 1645 1646 nmssecret
$ ./AT_ConfigureRadius.sh add 2 10.52.18.77 1812 1814 nmssecret
