In this section:
Use the Radius Server window to configure up to three RADIUS servers, per SBC, to which you want to submit requests to authenticate SBC users. When more than one RADIUS server is configured and RADIUS authentication is attempted, the server configured with the lowest numeric priority value is tried first. If fallback is configured, the server with the next lowest numeric priority value is tried next. SBC allows a configurable number of retries and time-outs before retry. Each SBC user is provided a private home directory for SFTP and files used by the CLI (refer to "Unique Home Directories" section on the page Managing SBC Core Users and Accounts). When using Radius authentication, users are only known to the Radius server and therefore do not have private home directories on the SBC. To create these home directories, you must also create Radius users on the SBC (refer to Local Authentication - CLI). On the SBC main screen, choose a path to view the Radius Server window. To create a new RADIUS server configuration: Click New Radius Server. The Create New Radius Server window is displayed. RADIUS Server Parameters IPv4 or IPv6 address format The IPv4 or IPv6 address of the RADIUS server. The default value is 0.0.0.0. N/A The Management Interface Group to use to connect to the RADIUS server. 0-255 Enter "none" to allow all VSA vendor-types, or a number between 0-255 to only return the group name in a VSA with that vendor-type.
