Bay Networks RADIUS Implementation
The following Bay Networks platforms can operate as RADIUS clients:
• Access Node (AN
®
)
• Access Node Hub (ANH
™
)
• Access Stack Node (ASN
™
)
• Advanced Remote Node (ARN
™
)
• Backbone Concentrator Node (BCN
®
)
• Backbone Link Node (BLN
®
)
• System 5000
™
(ASN
™
)
From one central location, RADIUS enables you to administer remote user
accounts by providing a full range of authentication and accounting services.
The remote users include:
• Routers with customized user profiles and routers from other vendors.
(RADIUS supports these routers by using vendor-specific attributes.)
• System administrators logging onto the RADIUS client from a local console
or Telnet.
• Routers acting as dial-up servers (concentrators).
• Other services that the server can authenticate such as FTP and HTTP.
RADIUS supports unnumbered IP addresses (demand circuit groups) and
numbered IP addresses (dial-up services). RADIUS clients that use dial-up
services typically use demand circuits, but they can also use backup or bandwidth
circuits.
Note:
Site Manager Version 7.20 supports all platforms except the System
5000.
Note:
To configure RADIUS with any service other than demand circuit
groups, Bay Networks recommends using the BCC.
