(ASCEND) Radius question
I'm trying to use the Ascend modified copy of radius from
ftp.ascend.com (radius-971222) so that I can get the special Ascend
fields (in particular Ascend-Disconnect-Cause) - right now I'm using
Livingston radius. Anyway, I have a default entry in my Livingston
users file which looks like:
DEFAULT Auth-Type = System, Framed-Protocol = PPP
Service-Type = Framed-User,
Framed-Protocol = PPP,
Framed-IP-Address = 255.255.255.254
Now, I know that I have to change Service-Type to User-Service, and
Framed-IP-Address to Framed-Address, but I don't know how to let the
ascend modified radius daemon know that I want to authenticate using
the system password file; previously it was Auth-Type=System, but I
can't find an equivalent.
I suspect a lot of people use something similar to this for
authentication (it's about as plain jane as you can get), so I'm
hoping someone could send me the user entry they're using, or let me
know what I need to change in the above entry. Basically, if a user
calls in with PPP, I'd like them authenticated against the system
password file, and then just let the Max (I have a 4048) assign the
IP address from it's pool. Incidentally, I can dial in just fine
using the above entry and the livingston (unmodified) radius daemon,
but I'm constantly getting cut off, and I'd like to see the
disconnect cause.
Anyway, thanks in advance,
Barry
