RADIUS Attributes

When provisioning data products that are authenticated and accounting using Emersion's RADIUS system, you are able to add custom RADIUS attributes based on the plan a customer is currently signed up to.

This can allow you control of things such as DNS Servers, Control Lists and IP Pools.

It is imperitive that your format of RADIUS attributes are correct, or you will experience issues with your customers when they authenticate.

Emersion uses Radiator as our RADIUS server, and as such we support the dictionaries provided by Radiator, plus a few custom attributes as required by some of our clients. If you are not sure that the attributes you are trying to use are available, please contact Emersion support.

The attribute key value pairs that are supported within the RADIUS Attribute text area, are delimited by commas.

An example set of key-value pairs, would be:

RB-Client-DNS-Primary="202.55.146.2", RB-Client-DNS-Secondary="202.55.145.10"

Dynamic IP Addressing

If you have organised dynamic IP allocate within Emersion, you will have what is known as a Pool Hint allocated to you. To have this plan take advantage of IP allocation, you will need to add PoolHint=XXXX to your RADIUS Attribute reply set, where XXX is the pool name allocated to you by Emersion. If you wish to have dynamic IP allocation setup for your customers and configured within the RADIUS system, you will need to contact Emersion Support.

Please Note If you make changes to your service plan RADIUS attributes, and Emersion Support needs to investigate / repair these issues for you, the support time will most likely be chargeable.
