Perhaps you want to configure the Telecommuting Module so that configuration traffic from one specific computer
is simply logged while traffic from the rest of that computer’s network is both logged and generates alarms.
is simply logged while traffic from the rest of that computer’s network is both logged and generates alarms.
The rules are used in the order in which they are listed, so if the network is listed first, all configuration traffic from
that network is both logged and generates alarms, including the traffic from that individual computer. But if the
individual computer is listed on a separate line before the network, that line will be considered first and all
configuration traffic from that computer is only logged while the traffic from the rest of the computer’s network is
both logged and generates alarms.

RADIUS
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is an authentication system consisting of one or more
servers, and clients using the servers to authenticate users. You could, for example, equip the company modems
with RADIUS clients, demanding that a user connecting to a modem first identifies himself to the RADIUS server.
Servers and clients communicate via UDP.

3Com VCX IP Telecommuting Module uses RADIUS for authentication of Telecommuting Module administration.
RADIUS Servers
Enter the server(s) that the Telecommuting Module should use. When more than one RADIUS server is entered,
make sure that their databases contain the same data, since the Telecommuting Module regards them all alike and
uses the server which first replies to a request.
