Information About RADIUS Route Download
The RADIUS Route Download feature allows users to configure their network access server (NAS) to direct RADIUS authorization. Users configure a separate named method list (in addition to the default method list) for static route download requests sent by their NAS to authorization, authentication, and accounting (AAA) servers.
Before this feature, RADIUS authorization for static route download requests was sent only to AAA servers specified by the default method list.
This feature extends the functionality of the aaa route download command to allow users to specify the name of the method list that will be used to direct static route download requests to the AAA servers. The aaa route downloadcommandmay be used to specify a separate method list for downloading static routes. This method list can be added by using the aaa authorization configuration command.
