RADIUS Authentication & User Profile Software
Appendix C: RADIUS Authentication &
User Profile Software
Requirements
Radius Server requires a 486-66 MHz or faster computer, preferably running Microsoft Windows NT
Server. Although Radius Server can also run on Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT 4.0
Client, on those operating systems it is not possible to use the NT Server user database. The
computer should have a hard disk, a CD-ROM drive, and LAN or WAN access.
Radius Server requires approximately 420 kB on the hard disk and space for the user database.
Installing Radius Login Authentication Software
MultiTechs Radius software allows the CommPlete 4000 RAS Server to operate in conjunction with a
general LAN server using Windows 95, 98, or NT4.
1. On the Radius Server computer, exit all Windows programs except Windows Explorer.
2. Insert the compact disc supplied with your Multi-Tech Systems communications server into the
computer's CD-ROM drive.
3. If Autorun does not display the installation menu, find Autorun.exe in the root folder of the compact
disc, and double-click it. The installation menu appears.
4. In the Select Software to Install dialog box, select Radius.
The Multi-Tech Radius Server Setup wizard will appear.
5. Follow the instructions in the Setup wizard to install Radius Server.
6. When the Settings dialog box appears, click OK. The default values are appropriate in most cases.
Descriptions of each field on the Settings dialog box can be viewed in the section Radius Server
Properties directly following this procedure. Also, you can change these settings at any time when
Radius Server is running.
7. Click Finish.
8. Re-boot the computer. By default, Multi-Tech Radius Service runs automatically on startup. If for
any reason the Radius program was shut down, you can launch the program manually from the
Windows Start menu.
