still be required if the user does not belong to a realm. The Simultaneous-Use
attribute can be used in a user entry for LAS functions.
Simultaneous-Use Attribute
This attribute’s value determines the maximum number of active sessions the user can
have. The default is 1 (if the LAS is enabled for the users realm, but no
Simultaneous-Use attribute value is specified for the user or the users realm). A
value of -1 disables the feature—providing no limit to number of simultaneous sessions
for a user in a realm enabled to use the LAS.
NOTE: Simultaneous session control is based on the inner identity (realm) for
tunneled-EAP authentications.
Attributes Concerning OTP Authentication
These attributes are used for configuring OTP authentication and customizing the
feature to suit various deployments. For information on these attributes, see Attributes
for Configuring OTP Authentication” (page 188).
Check (and Deny) Items
A user entry can include check, configuration-only, and reply items to implement
simple policy decisions. Check items are A-V pairs that are compared to pairs in a
RADIUS Access-Request data packet. Reply items are A-V pairs that are included in
an Access-Accept, Access-Challenge, or Access-Reject messages to provide instruction
to the NAS for authorizing the user.
There are two types of check items:
Regular check items
Deny items
A check item is used to authenticate a user by matching the attribute value in a request
to the attribute value specified as a check item. A deny item is a regular attribute,
identical to a check item, except the value is not matched to the attribute as being equal
to a value but by being not equal (indicated by !=). In other words, a deny item causes
an Access-Request to be rejected if the deny item's value matches the corresponding
attribute value in the request.
