Chapter: Configuring the RADIUS Client
Configuring the RADIUS Client
Introduction
This module describes the configuration procedure for a RADIUS Client.
Configuring the RADIUS Client
The RADIUS clients are needed to send RADIUS messages to the RADIUS Listener and must be configured to do so.
Step 1 
Configure the subscriber manager (SM) machine as the destination of accounting messages.
You must configure the following parameters:
•The SM IP address
•The UDP ports to which the RADIUS Listener listens
•The shared secret configured for this client in the SM configuration file
Step 2 Verify that the Accounting-Start message is sent with the correct attributes
•The attribute configured in the subscriber ID attribute mapping in the SM configuration file. See Mapping of RADIUS Attribute to Subscriber ID, page 16-7.
•The attribute configured in the subscriber IP address attribute mapping in the SM configuration file, the Framed-Route or the Framed-IP-Address. See Mapping of RADIUS Attribute to Subscriber IP Address, page 16-13.
•(Optional) The attribute configured in the Subscriber package attribute mapping in the SM configuration file. See Mapping of RADIUS Attribute to Subscriber Policy, page 16-11.
Step 3 Verify that the Accounting-Stop message is sent with the correct attributes
•The attribute configured in the subscriber ID attribute mapping in the SM configuration file. See Mapping of RADIUS Attribute to Subscriber ID, page 16-7.
•The attribute configured in the subscriber IP address attribute mapping in the SM configuration file, the Framed-Route or the Framed-IP-Address. See Mapping of RADIUS Attribute to Subscriber IP Address, page 16-13.
Note It is recommended that you configure the RADIUS client to not send Authentication and Accounting-Intermediate messages to the SM to reduce the load of packet handling.
