@tenso:
hello
the configuration file clients.conf radius we have the following syntax
Customer host.domainname
(
secret = motdepasseradius
shortname alias =
nastype = Other
)
in this file are given addresses of access points that have the right to access the radius server for authentication
but what these attributes secret shortname and nastype represent ?
my access points can not access to the RADIUS server
What should I change on the client file. conf
thank
Ok. It goes like this:
client 192.168.15.254 {
secret = yoursharedsecret
shortname = Hotel-California
}
First word is client and it is your access unit/server/AP/whatever. It is not customer, it is hard-coded and all radius servers have it.
You can use host name but, please, don't. Use IP address.
Brackets are curly - no other can be used (for freeradius) I don't have other radius server here so I can't check them now.
Secret is a secret word (not known/shared/whatever to other people/systems) shared only between your client access unit/server/AP/whatever. Yes, you can use the same one for all your systems.
Shortname is, well, shortname. Name your client as you wish.
nastype=other is OK.
Is that enough for get you started?
Please read HOWTO's but feel free to ask.
