Before You Begin
Before you enable RADIUS, do the following:
1.
Create and save a configuration file that has at least one wide area network
(WAN) interface.
2.
In Site Manager, retrieve the configuration file in local, remote, or dynamic
mode.
3.
Specify the router hardware if this is a local-mode configuration.
4.
Configure the physical interface for any ISDN lines that you will use for
RADIUS.
Refer to Configuring Dial Services to learn how to configure ISDN lines.
5.
Configure one or more dial services so that the RADIUS client can accept
calls from remote users.
Configure dial-on-demand, dial backup, or bandwidth-on-demand service to
operate with RADIUS. Refer to Configuring Dial Services for instructions.
Once you enable RADIUS, the RADIUS client automatically configures a
dial connection; therefore, you are not required to configure a dial service.
6.
Enable dial-optimized routing on the remote routers (RADIUS authentication
only).
Dial-optimized routing prevents Routing Information Protocol (RIP) updates
or Service Advertising Protocol (SAP) updates from keeping a line active
unnecessarily, thereby reducing the line costs. Enabling this feature improves
the operation of RADIUS authentication.
Starting Configuration Tools
Before configuring RADIUS, refer to the following user guides for instructions on
