Configuring and Enabling RADIUS
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to specify RADIUS authorization for privileged
EXEC access and network services:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
aaa authorization network radius
Step 3
aaa authorization exec radius
Step 4
end
Step 5
show running-config
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config
To disable authorization, use the no aaa authorization {network | exec} method1 global configuration
command.
Starting RADIUS Accounting
The AAA accounting feature tracks the services that users are accessing and the amount of network
resources that they are consuming. When AAA accounting is enabled, the bridge reports user activity to
the RADIUS security server in the form of accounting records. Each accounting record contains
accounting attribute-value (AV) pairs and is stored on the security server. This data can then be analyzed
for network management, client billing, or auditing.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable RADIUS accounting for each Cisco
IOS privilege level and for network services:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
aaa accounting network start-stop
radius
Step 3
ip radius source-interface bvi1
Step 4
aaa accounting update periodic minutes Enter an accounting update interval in minutes.
Step 5
end
Step 6
show running-config
Step 7
copy running-config startup-config
To disable accounting, use the no aaa accounting {network | exec} {start-stop} method1... global
configuration command.
