Aaa Attribute Lists; Converting From Radius Format To Cisco Ios Aaa Format - Cisco 10000-2P2-2DC Software Configuration Manual

In the figure, the BRAS can be configured to provide AAA accounting start/stop and periodic records
for each PPP session. The BRAS can also be configured to provide NAS-Port information in the
accounting records that will detail the slot/card/interface and VPI/VCI or VLAN.

AAA Attribute Lists

AAA Attribute Lists are used by the subscriber profiles when there is a match of the user name domain.
These lists define RADIUS user profiles local to the router. The attributes are available for configuration
using the aaa attribute list name global configuration command. Every attribute known to AAA is made
available for configuration.
The AAA attributes that are defined in the AAA attribute list are standard RADIUS attributes, however
they are in the Cisco IOS AAA format of the attribute. You must convert the attributes from RADIUS
format to Cisco IOS AAA format.

Converting from RADIUS Format to Cisco IOS AAA Format

Use the show aaa attribute protocol radius command to get the Cisco IOS AAA format of the IETF
RADIUS Attribute. This provides a complete list of all the aaa attributes supported. The following is an
example where you need to convert the RADIUS attribute Filter-Id to Cisco IOS AAA format. This
example represents part of the output of the show aaa attribute protocol radius command.
IIETF defined attributes:
Type=4
Protocol:RADIUS
Unknown
Cisco IOS converts the IETF RADIUS attribute 11 (Filter-Id) of type Binary into an internal attribute
named acl of type Ulong. Now you can configure this attribute locally using the attribute type acl.
You cannot add new AAA attributes during the conversion process. The conversion is only making the
Note
attributes configurable and usable locally on the router. The defined local AAA attributes must be
supported RADIUS attributes.
