address is specified; and the IP 
address of the outbound 
interface is used as the source 
IP address. 
 
  Caution: 
z  Generally, the access users are named in the userid@isp-name format. Where, 
isp-name behind the @ character represents the ISP domain name, by which the 
device determines which ISP domain it should ascribe the user to. However, some 
old RADIUS servers cannot accept the user names that carry ISP domain names. In 
this case, it is necessary to remove the domain names carried in the user names 
before sending the user names to the RADIUS server. For this reason, the 
user-name-format command is designed for you to specify whether or not ISP 
domain names are carried in the user names sent to the RADIUS server. 
z  For a RADIUS scheme, if you have specified that no ISP domain names are carried 
in the user names, you should not adopt this RADIUS scheme in more than one ISP 
domain. Otherwise, such errors may occur: the RADIUS server regards two 
different users having the same name but belonging to different ISP domains as the 
same user (because the usernames sent to it are the same). 
z  In the default RADIUS scheme "system", no ISP domain names are carried in the 
user names by default.
