Create New/Edit RADIUS Attribute Settings Window


Use this window to add a new attribute group or edit an existing attribute group. You can access the Create New/Edit RADIUS Attribute Settings window from the RADIUS Attribute Settings window.

Attribute Group Name
The name of the attribute group. Once you create an attribute group, you cannot edit the name of a group.
Attribute Definition
The attributes used in the RADIUS request or response to which the attribute group is assigned.
Attributes can use the following variables in the format %VARIABLE_NAME%:
  • ES_IP — The IP address of the end-system, if known.
  • ES_MAC — The MAC address of the end-system. To change the format of the MAC address, enter :<format> to the variable.

  • For example, for an end-system with a MAC address of "00-12-34-ab-cd-ef," entering %ES_MAC:XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX% displays the MAC address as "00-12-34-AB-CD-EF", while entering %ES_MAC:xxxxxx.xxxxxx% displays the MAC address as "001234.abcdef".
  • ES_OUI_VENDOR — Uses the MAC OUI of the end-system's MAC address to look up the vendor of that MAC OUI, if it is in the list of registered vendor OUIs.
  • NAS_IP — The IP address of the device on which the end-system is currently authenticating.
  • NAS_MAC — The IP address of the device on which the end-system is currently authenticating.
  • RADIUS Attributes — Any RADIUS attribute (e.g. Seimens-SSID or Seimens-BSS-MAC). If you use a RADIUS attribute in an Attribute Definition, you can refer to that attribute in another attribute.
  NOTE: The example shown in the bottom two lines in the Attribute Definition section of the picture above resets the Calling-Station-Id to use the end-system MAC followed by the SSID.
