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.

The ACL Default Direction feature allows the filter direction to be changed on the server (where the filter direction is not specified) to inbound packets (packets coming into the network) only.
Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module.

Before you can change the default direction of filters from RADIUS, you must perform the following tasks:
For more information, refer to the AAA chapters of the Cisco IOS Security Configuration Guide: Securing User Services, Release 12.4T and the Cisco IOS Dial Technologies Configuration Guide, Release 12.4T .

The radius-server attribute 11 direction default command allows you to change the default direction of filters for your ACLs via RADIUS. (RADIUS attribute 11 (Filter-Id) indicates the name of the filter list for the user.) Enabling this command allows you to change the filter direction to inbound--which stops traffic from entering a router, and reduces resource consumption--rather than keeping the outbound default direction, where filtering occurs only as the traffic is about to leave the network.
The ACL Default Direction feature allows you to change the default direction, which is outbound, of filters for your ACLs to inbound via the radius-server attribute 11 direction default command.
Perform this task to configure the default direction of filters from RADIUS via attribute 11.
Perform this task to verify the default direction of filters from RADIUS and to verify that RADIUS attribute 11 is being sent in access accept requests.
The following example shows how to configure RADIUS attribute 11 to change the default direction of filters. In this example, the filtering is applied to inbound packets only.
radius-server attribute 11 direction default inbound
The following is an example of a RADIUS user profile (Merit Daemon format) that includes RADIUS attribute 11 (Filter-Id):
client Password = "password1" Service-Type = Framed, Framed-Protocol = PPP, Filter-Id = "myfilter.out"
The RADIUS user profile shown in this example produces the following reply from the NAS:
RADIUS: Send to unknown id 79 10.51.13.4:1645, Access-Request, len 85 RADIUS: authenticator 84 D3 B5 7D C2 5B 70 AD - 1E 5C 56 E8 3A 91 D0 6E RADIUS: User-Name [1] 8 "client" RADIUS: CHAP-Password [3] 19 * RADIUS: NAS-Port [5] 6 20030 RADIUS: NAS-Port-Type [61] 6 ISDN [2] RADIUS: Called-Station-Id [30] 6 "4321" RADIUS: Calling-Station-Id [31] 6 "1234" RADIUS: Service-Type [6] 6 Framed [2] RADIUS: NAS-IP-Address [4] 6 10.1.73.74 RADIUS: Received from id 79 10.51.13.4:1645, Access-Accept, len 46 RADIUS: authenticator 9C 6C 66 E2 F1 42 D6 4B - C1 7D D4 5E 9D 09 BB A1 RADIUS: Service-Type [6] 6 Framed [2] RADIUS: Framed-Protocol [7] 6 PPP [1] RADIUS: Filter-Id [11] 14 RADIUS: 6D 79 66 69 6C 74 65 72 2E 6F 75 74 [myfilter.out]
