following table.
Table 13-1 System Security - External Server Menu Fields
Field Description Default
Active Determines whether the external security facility is enabled.
If No, only the built-in dial-up user list will be used.
If Yes, the built-in dial-up user list will be searched first, then the
external authentication server.
Type Determines the type of the external authentication server. At
present only RADIUS is supported.
Server
Address
The IP address of the RADIUS server.
Port # The IP port number used by the authentication server. The default
is port 1645.
[1645]
Key A “password” used to authenticate your Prestige to the RADIUS
service. Please note that this is between the Prestige and the
server; it has nothing to do with the dial-in users.
13.2.3 The Key Field
The “key”, or password, must match that in the client file in the RADIUS
server’s
/etc/raddb directory, as shown in the following example:
# Client Name Key
#-------------------------
192.168.1.1 1234
After you configure a RADIUS server, your Prestige will use it to authenticate all
users that it can not find in its internal dial-up user list (see Menu 14)
