Chapter 25 AAA Table 71 Advanced Application > AAA > AAA Setup (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch's run-time memory. The Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the nonvolatile memory when you are done configuring. Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh. 25.2.4 Vendor Specific Attribute RFC 2865 standard specifies a method for sending vendor-specific information between a RADIUS server and a network access device (for example, the Switch). A company can create Vendor Specific Attributes (VSAs) to expand the functionality of a RADIUS server. The Switch supports VSAs that allow you to perform the following actions based on user authentication: • Limit bandwidth on incoming or outgoing traffic for the port the user connects to. • Assign account privilege levels (see the CLI Reference Guide for more information on account privilege levels) for the authenticated user. The VSAs are composed of the following: • Vendor-ID: An identification number assigned to the company by the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority). ZyXEL's vendor ID is 890. • Vendor-Type: A vendor specified attribute, identifying the setting you want to modify. • Vendor-data: A value you want to assign to the setting. Note: Refer to the documentation that comes with your RADIUS server on how to configure VSAs for users authenticating via the RADIUS server. The following table describes the VSAs supported on the Switch. Note that these attributes only work when you enable authorization (see Section 25.2.3 on page 249). Table 72 Supported VSAs FUNCTION Ingress Bandwidth Assignment ATTRIBUTE Vendor-Id = 890 Vendor-Type = 1 Vendor-data = ingress rate (Kbps in decimal format) 252 XGS-4526/4528F/4728F User's Guide
