3com WX1200 User Manual

service-type

Type of access the user 
is requesting.

One of the following numbers:

2—Framed; for network user access

6—Administrative; for administrative 
access to the WX switch, with 
authorization to access the enabled 
(configuration) mode. The user must 
enter the enable command to access 
the enabled mode.

7—NAS-Prompt; for administrative 
access to the nonenabled mode only. 
In this mode, the enable command is 
not available and the user cannot log 
in to the enabled mode.

For administrative sessions, the WX 
switch will send 7 (NAS-Prompt) unless 
the service-type attribute has been 
configured for the user. 

The RADIUS server can reply with one 
of the values listed above.

If the service-type is not set on the 
RADIUS server, administrative users 
receive NAS-Prompt access, and 
network users receive Framed access. 

session-timeout

mode only)

Maximum number of 
seconds for the user’s

(network access 
mode only)

SSID the user is allowed 
to access after

must be used by a radio profile 
assigned to MAP radios in the Mobility 
Domain.

start-date

Date and time at which 
the user becomes 
eligible to access the 
network.

MSS does not 
authenticate the user 
unless the attempt to 
access the network 
occurs at or after the 
specified date and time, 
but before the end-date 
(if specified).

format:
