RAdmin gives you detailed control over who can log in, under what
circumstances, and to also control the characteristics of their session
once they are connected.
Service Profiles allow you to group a number of users with similar
login privileges together and to control their privileges easily. The
RAdmin Administrator will usually set up a number of Service Profiles, one
for each group of users. For example, you might set up a Service Profile
for your normal subscribers, and a different Service Profile for your
Operations Centre staff that has greater privileges, or can connect
through a dedicated line.
When a user attempts to log in, Radiator/RAdmin will perform the
following checks in this order:
- Bad Logins count has not been exceeded.
- The Valid From and Valid To dates are OK.
- The password is correct.
- If the user has a Service Profile, that any RADIUS Check Items in
that Service Profile match.
- If there are any user-specific RADIUS Check Items for the user, that
they match.
RAdmin allows you to easily set RADIUS Check and Reply items for users
and Service Profiles.
RADIUS Check Items are checked when a user attempts to log in. All the
Check items must be correct, otherwise the user will not be permitted to
log in. There is a wide range of RADIUS attributes that may be used as
Check Items. You should consult your NAS vendor documentation for
information about which ones are supported by your NAS, and how they are
used.
RADIUS Reply items are used to configure a user's session once they
have successfully logged in. There is a wide range of RADIUS attributes
that may be used as Reply Items. You should consult your NAS vendor
documentation for information about which ones are supported by your NAS,
and how they are used.
Tip
It is also possible to set Check and Reply items for
all users in the Radiator configuration file.
