We are going to install two or three (cisco,lucent and cvx) different typesof access
servers.
Now I have the problem how to use multiple vendors on the same radiator?
I have one radiator,lets say A. All Cisco devices are using this.
I setup a new radiator (B) to different host and make the required Client
configuration for both Cisco and Lucent. In the same time I set all lucent
devices to radiator B.
When someone want to connect from Lucent for second time (the first
connection were made from radiator A) then he/she can't but I see some wrong
data in my log file. I sent you my both config and logfile from Radius for
Lucent. If you look to the logfile you'll see that radiator knows that the
client is Ascend so it use finger. But after that it use SNMP too.
I don't see any reason to use SNMP here.
Can you help me to implement a radius system using radiator, SQL db and
different Access servers

the NasType would have to be set to Cisco for SNMP to be used for simultaneous
use.
Before we go much further though, I think I need to better understand your
requirements. At the moment you are running two different Radiator hosts - can
you expain the reason for this? And do you want to continue doing it? Most
installations using two Radiator hosts do so for the reasons of reliability,
and generally have the same configuration on both, with the NAS's configured to
use one host or the other, with the second host as a secondary.
Another question I have is where is the database? Is it on a seperate SQL host?
It would be preferable if it were so, as both Radiator hosts need access to the
same database for accounting and also for the session database.
There is another well-known problem with Cisco's and radius accounting and
SNMP, as the values for NAS-Port (or Cicso-NAS-Port) are different from what is
reported by SNMP queries. Unfortunately this depends on the IOS version and
seems to be fairly random, so it has been very hard to try to sort out.
Please let me know in a bit more detail what your requirements are and I'm sure
we can come up with a sensible plan.

Hugh
