-Protocol (CCP) being disabled, the command ``set vpn l2tp remote-access ccp-disable``

RADIUS authentication
-======================
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-To enable RADIUS based authentication, the authentication mode needs to be
-changed withing the configuration. Previous settings like the local users, still
-exists within the configuration, however they are not used if the mode has been
-changed from local to radius. Once changed back to local, it will use all local
-accounts again.
+The above configuration made use of local accounts on the VyOS router for
+authenticating L2TP/IPSec clients. In bigger environments usually something
+like RADIUS_ (FreeRADIUS_ or Microsoft `Network Policy Server`_, NPS) is used.
+
+VyOS supports either `local` or `radius` user authentication:
.. code-block:: sh
set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication mode <local|radius>
-Since the RADIUS server would be a single point of failure, multiple RADIUS
-servers can be setup and will be used subsequentially.
+In addition one or more RADIUS_ servers can be configured to server for user
+authentication. This is done using the `radius server` and `radius server key`
+nodes:
.. code-block:: sh
- set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication radius server 10.0.0.1 key 'foo'
- set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication radius server 10.0.0.2 key 'foo'
+ set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication radius server 1.1.1.1 key 'foo'
+ set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication radius server 2.2.2.2 key 'foo'
-.. note:: Some RADIUS_ severs use an access control list which allows or denies
- queries, make sure to add your VyOS router to the allowed client list.
+.. note:: Some RADIUS_ severs make use of an access control list who is allowed
+ to query the server. Please configure your VyOS router in the allowed client
+ list.
RADIUS source address
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+*********************
-If you are using OSPF as IGP always the closets interface connected to the RADIUS
+If you are using e.g. OSPF as IGP always the nearest interface facing the RADIUS
server is used. With VyOS 1.2 you can bind all outgoing RADIUS requests to a
single source IP e.g. the loopback interface.
.. code-block:: sh
- set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication radius source-address 10.0.0.3
+ set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication radius source-address 3.3.3.3
-Above command will use `10.0.0.3` as source IPv4 address for all RADIUS queries
+Above command will use `3.3.3.3` as source IPv4 address for all RADIUS queries
on this NAS.
-.. note:: The ``source-address`` must be configured on one of VyOS interface.
- Best proctice would be a loopback or dummy interface.
-
-RADIUS bandwidth shaping attribute
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-To enable bandwidth shaping via RADIUS, the option rate-limit needs to be enabled.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication radius rate-limit enable
-
-The default RADIUS attribute for rate limiting is ``Filter-Id``, but you may also
-redefine it.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication radius rate-limit attribute Download-Speed
-
-.. note:: If you set a custom RADIUS attribute you must define it on both
- dictionaries at RADIUS server and client, which is the vyos router in our
- example.
-
-The RADIUS dictionaries in VyOS are located at ``/usr/share/accel-ppp/radius/``
-
-RADIUS advanced features
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Received RADIUS attributes have a higher priority than parameters defined within
-the CLI configuration, refer to the explanation below.
-
-Allocation clients ip addresses by RADIUS
-*****************************************
-
-If the RADIUS server sends the attribute ``Framed-IP-Address`` then this IP
-address will be allocated to the client and the option ip-pool within the CLI
-config is being ignored.
-
-Renaming clients interfaces by RADIUS
-*************************************
-
-If the RADIUS server uses the attribute ``NAS-Port-Id``, ppp tunnels will be
-renamed.
-
-.. note:: The value of the attribute ``NAS-Port-Id`` must be less than 16
- characters, otherwise the interface won't be renamed.
