Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product. Learn more about how Cisco is using Inclusive Language.

Introduction

This document provides a sample configuration for advanced RADIUS for dialup PPP clients.

Configuration Notes

Before you begin, ensure that dial-in works. Once the modem can connect and authenticate locally, turn on RADIUS. Then, test authentication to verify that a user can connect and authenticate through RADIUS and turn on authorization.

Clients File (on server) 

!--- Note: This assumes Livingston RADIUS.

Users File (on server) 

!--- Note: This assumes Livingston RADIUS.

# User who can telnet in to configure:
admin Password = "admin"
User-Service-Type = Login-User
# ppp/chap authentication line 1 - password must be cleartext per chap spec
#
# This user gets an IP address from a pool on the router.
chapuser Password = "chapuser"
User-Service-Type = Framed-User,
Framed-Protocol = PPP
# ppp/chap authentication line 1 - password must be cleartext per chap spec
#
# This user has a statically assigned IP address
chapadd Password = "chapadd"
User-Service-Type = Framed-User,
Framed-Protocol = PPP,
Framed-Address = 10.10.10.10

Verify

There is currently no verification procedure available for this configuration.

Troubleshoot

Use this section to troubleshoot your configuration.

Troubleshooting Commands

Note: Refer to Important Information on Debug Commands before you use debug commands.

  • debug ppp negotiation - To determine if a client is passing PPP negotiation; this is when you check for address negotiation.

  • debug ppp authentication - To determine if a client is passing authentication. If you are using a version prior to Cisco IOS® Software Release 11.2, issue the debug ppp chap command instead.

  • debug ppp error - To display protocol errors and error statistics associated with PPP connection negotiation and operation.

  • debug aaa authentication - To determine which method is being used to authenticate (which should be RADIUS, unless the RADIUS server is down) and whether the users are passing authentication.

  • debug aaa authorization - To determine which method is being used for authorization and whether the users are passing it.

  • debug aaa accounting - To watch accounting records that are sent.

  • debug radius - To watch user attributes that are exchanged with the server.
