Configuring RADIUS 765
■ The attribute ip command only applies to authentications that support IP 
address passing, such as 802.1x. If you configure the command to 
authentications that do not support IP address passing, such as MAC address 
authentication, the local authentication will fail.
■ The attribute port command binds a port by its number only, regardless of 
the port type.
■ The idle-cut command configured under ISP view applies to lan-access users 
only.

Configuring RADIUS The RADIUS protocol is configured scheme by scheme. After creating a RADIUS 
scheme, you need to configure the IP addresses and UDP ports of the RADIUS 
servers for the scheme. The servers include authentication/authorization servers 
and accounting servers, or from another point of view, primary servers and 
secondary servers. In another words, the attributes of a RADIUS scheme mainly 
include IP addresses of primary and secondary servers, shared key, and RADIUS 
server type.
Actually, the RADIUS protocol configurations only set the parameters necessary for 
the information interaction between a NAS and a RADIUS server. For these 
settings to take effect, you must reference the RADIUS scheme containing those 
settings in ISP domain view. For information about the commands for referencing 
a scheme, refer to “Configuring AAA” on page 758.

A RADIUS scheme can be referenced by more than one ISP domain at the same
