All rights reserved. +.SH NAME +/etc/pam_radius_auth.conf \- RADIUS client configuration file +.SH SYNOPSIS +.B /etc/tacplus_servers +is the RADIUS client configuration file for the PAM RADIUS client plugin. +It contains the information on how to reach the RADIUS server(s), and +because it contains the shared secret key, should be mode 600 and owned +by root. +.SH DESCRIPTION +Other PAM-specific options are described in the +.B pam_radius_auth.8 +manpage, and must be added to the PAM configuration files. +.PP +By default, all components source this file, enabling a single point of +configuration for the TACACS server(s), debug settings, etc. +.PP +Not all keywords use all fields. +.TP +.I debug +Output PAM and RADIUS communication debugging information via syslog(3). +.TP +.I server[:port] secret [timeout] [src_ip] +the port name or number is optional. The default port name is +"radius", and is looked up from +.IR /etc/services . +The timeout field is optional. The default timeout is 3 seconds. +.IP +For IPv6 literal addresses, the address has to be surrounded by +square brackets as usual. E.g. [2001:0db8:85a3::4]. +.IP +If multiple RADIUS server lines exist, they are tried in order. The +first server to return success or failure causes the module to return +success or failure. Only if a server fails to response is it skipped, +and the next server in turn is used. +.IP +The optional timeout field controls how many seconds the module waits before +deciding that the server has failed to respond. It currently must be +less than 60. +.IP +The optional src_ip may be used to configure the source IP address used +in the RADIUS packets to the server. The timeout field must be set if +setting the src_ip is desired +.TP +.I vrf-name VRFNAME +If the management network is in a VRF, set this variable to the VRF name. This +would usually be "mgmt". This is not normally needed with PAM. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR pam_radius_auth (8), +.BR mapuser_nss (5) +.SH FILES +.I /etc/pam_radius_auth.conf +- RADIUS client configuration parameters +.SH AUTHOR +Dave Olson <olson@cumulusnetworks.com> |
