3. Configure RADIUS users.
The APC-Permissions attribute must be configured for each
administrator, port administrator, and read-only user accessing the
VCPS. The APC-Permissions attribute is a string and is set as follows:
CPS_PERMS=admin
CPS_PERMS= identifies these as console port server permissions.
admin is a user permission string.
Permissions for individual ports can be configured using the vendor-specific
APC-PERM attribute or the standard RADIUS NAS-Port attribute.
APC-PERM attribute. To allow a user to access a port, set the APC-PERM
attribute as follows:
CPS_PERMS=port1:ma
CPS_PERMS= identifies these as console port server permissions.
port1:ma is a user permission string.
NAS-Port attribute. The Network Access Server Port (NAS-Port),
RADIUS attribute ID 5 as defined in RFC 2865, can be used to assign per
port permissions for a user. Specifying a port using NAS-Port grants a user
both read and write access to the specified port. For example, the attribute
NAS-Port=1 is equivalent to using the vendor-specific attribute APC-
Permissions=”CPS_PERMS=1:ma”.
RADIUS user names are limited to 32 characters.

Management.
