Configure RADIUS authentication for a ConnectPort TS device

You can configure a ConnectPort TS to use RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) servers to authenticate and maintain user profiles on dial-in users.

When RADIUS authentication is enabled, the user name and password used to log into the ConnectPort TS is sent to the RADIUS server for authentication. If the user login has been configured on the RADIUS server, then the user is allowed to access the ConnectPort TS web interface.

To configure RADIUS authentication:

  1. Determine whether the RADIUS server is configured to authenticate users. See RADIUS server reference.
  2. Create the required RADIUS roles locally on the ConnectPort TS. See Create RADIUS server roles.
  3. Enable RADIUS authentication for a device, and then configure the Digi device to use one or more RADIUS servers to authenticate user profiles See Enable RADIUS authentication.
