Legrand PDU User Guide 455
FreeRADIUS Standard Attribute Illustration
With standard attributes, NO dictionary files are required. You simply add all user data, including user names,
passwords, and roles, in the following FreeRADIUS path.
/etc/raddb/users
Presumptions in the illustration:
User name =
steve
Steve's password =
test123
Steve's roles =
Admin
and
SystemTester
To create a user profile for "steve" in FreeRADIUS:
1. Go to this location:
/etc/raddb/users
.
2. Add the data of the user "steve" by typing the following. Note that the values after the equal sign (=) must
be enclosed in double quotes (").
steve Cleartext-Password := "test123"
Filter-ID = "Raritan:G{Admin}",
Filter-ID = "Raritan:G{SystemTester}"
Vendor-Specific Attributes
You must specify the following properties when using a RADIUS vendor-specific attribute (VSA).
Vendor code =
13742
Vendor-assigned attribute number =
26
Attribute format =
String
The syntax of the vendor-specific attribute for specifying one or multiple roles is:
Raritan:G{role-name1 role-name2 role-name3}
