Configuring a RADIUS server on UNIX
®
, with shadow passwords
If UNIX shadow password files are used (/etc/passwd) with the RADIUS dictionary files,
the following two methods can be used to authenticate users:
• If all UNIX users have administrative privileges, add the following to the RADIUS
user file. To allow only Device Users, change the APC-Service-Type to Device.
DEFAULT Auth-Type = System
APC-Service-Type = Admin
• Add user names and attributes to the RADIUS user file and verify password against
/etc/passwd. The following example is for users bconners and thawk:
bconners Auth-Type = System
APC-Service-Type = Admin
thawk Auth-Type = System
APC-Service-Type = Device
Supported RADIUS servers
APC supports FreeRADIUS and Microsoft Windows IAS Server. Other commonly
available RADIUS applications may work but have not been fully tested by APC.
Inactivity Timeout (Administration>Security>Auto Log Off)
Use this option to configure the time (3 minutes by default) that the system waits before
logging off an inactive user.
