RADIUS Server Summary
Use the
RADIUS
screen to manage the list of RADIUS servers the ZyWALL can
use in authenticating users.
Base DN
Specify the directory (up to 127 alphanumerical characters). For
example,
o=ZyXEL, c=US
.
Use SSL
Select
Use SSL
to establish a secure connection to the AD or LDAP
server(s).
Search time
limit
Specify the timeout period (between 1 and 300 seconds) before the
ZyWALL disconnects from the AD or LDAP server. In this case, user
authentication fails.
Search timeout occurs when either the user information is not in the AD
or LDAP server(s) or the AD or LDAP server(s) is down.
Bind DN
Specify the bind DN for logging into the AD or LDAP server. Enter up to
127 alphanumerical characters.
For example,
cn=zywallAdmin
specifies
zywallAdmin
as the user
name.
Password
If required, enter the password (up to 15 alphanumerical characters)
for the ZyWALL to bind (or log in) to the AD or LDAP server.
Base DN

Alternative
Login Name
Attribute
If there is a second type of identifier that the users can use to log in,
enter it here. For example “name” or “e-mail address”.
Group
Membership
Attribute
An AD or LDAP server defines attributes for its accounts. Enter the
name of the attribute that the ZyWALL is to check to determine to which
group a user belongs. The value for this attribute is called a group
identifier; it determines to which group a user belongs.
You can add
ext-group-user
user objects to identify groups based on these group
identifier values.
For example you could have an attribute named “memberOf” with
values like “sales”, “RD”, and “management”. Then you could also create
a
ext-group-user
user object for each group. One with “sales” as the
group identifier, another for “RD” and a third for “management”.
Configuration
Validation
Use a user account from the server specified above to test if the
configuration is correct. Enter the account’s user name in the
Username
field and click
