Chapter 6: User Management 

 

Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) is an AAA 
(authentication, authorization, and accounting) protocol for network 
access applications. 

 

1.  Click User Management > Authentication Settings to open the 

Authentication Settings page. 

2.  Click the RADIUS radio button to enable the RADIUS section of the 

page. 

3. Click 

the 

  icon to expand the RADIUS section of the 

page. 

4.  In the Primary Radius Server and Secondary Radius Server fields, 

type the IP address of your primary and optional secondary remote 
authentication servers, respectively (up to 37 characters). 

5.  In the Shared Secret fields, type the server secret used for 

authentication (up to 37 characters).   

The shared secret is a character string that must be known by both 
the Dominion KX II and the RADIUS server to allow them to 
communicate securely. It is essentially a password. 

6.  The Authentication Port default is port is 1812 but can be changed 

as required. 

7.  The Accounting Port default port is 1813 but can be changed as 

required. 

8.  The Timeout is recorded in seconds and default timeout is 1 second, 

but can be changed as required.   

The timeout is the length of time the Dominion KX II waits for a 
response from the RADIUS server before sending another 
authentication request. 

9.  The default number of retries is 3 Retries.   

This is the number of times the Dominion KX II will send an 
authentication request to the RADIUS server. 

10.  Choose the Global Authentication Type from among the options in 

the drop-down list: 

ƒ  PAP - With PAP, passwords are sent as plain text. PAP is not 

interactive. The user name and password are sent as one data 
package once a connection is established, rather than the server 
sending a login prompt and waiting for a response.
