Configuring Cisco RADIUS Authentication
For more information on Cisco, visit cisco.com
Description:
This document has been constructed to configure Cisco Routers, Switches, and Aironet devices to allow user authentication via Microsoft RADIUS. This configuration will allow for users to log into the devices using Active Directory credentials and will set their access (Priv 1-15) based on their credentials via Active Directory group membership.
Pre-Requisites:
1. RADIUS Server:
Configure your RADIUS server to work with Cisco devices (Article coming soon...)
2. Set Secret Enable:
Prior to configuring your devices for RADIUS, ensure you have a secret enable configured on your device so that in the event that RADIUS authentication is down, you will still have access to the device.
enable secret <PASSWORD>
username admin privilege 15 password <PASSWORD>
Warning:
The username configuration will not work while RADIUS authentication is configured, as it is a local username.
Configure RADIUS:
1. Login:
Log into the router via Telnet or SSH
telnet 192.168.0.15
or ssh 192.168.0.15
2. Enter Global Config:
Enter the devices global config mode from the privileged exec prompt AP#
config t
3. AAA Methods:
Configure and enable the following aaa methods
NOTICE:
The following syntax will be input from the Global Config prompt: Cisco(config)#
aaa new-model
aaa authentication login default group radius local
aaa authorization exec default group radius local
4. RADIUS PSKs:
Configure the RADIUS server Pre-Shared Keys (This key is the key used when configuring the IAS or NPS RADIUS clients in step 1)
NOTICE:
The following syntax will be input from the Global Config prompt: Cisco(config)#
radius-server host 192.168.79.64 auth-port 1645 acct_port 1646 key ReplaceThisWithKey
radius-server host 192.168.79.69 auth-port 1645 acct_port 1646 key ReplaceThisWithKey
Removing RADIUS:
The ''no'' form of each command will remove the configuration from the running memory
NOTICE:
This snippit assumes you are in Privileged Exec mode: Cisco#
config t
no aaa authentication login default group radius local
no aaa authorization exec default group radius local
aaa authentication login default local
aaa authorization exec default local
!
no radius-server host 192.168.79.64 auth-port 1645 acct_port 1646 key ReplaceThisWithKey
no radius-server host 192.168.79.69 auth-port 1645 acct_port 1646 key ReplaceThisWithKey
exit
