FIGURE 10 Windows 2000 VSA configuration
Linux FreeRadius server
For the configuration on a Linux FreeRadius server, define the values outlined in Table 17 in a
vendor dictionary file called dictionary.brocade.
After you have completed the dictionary file, define the permissions for the user in a configuration
file. For example, to grant the user jsmith Admin permissions, you would add the following
statement to the configuration file:
swladmin Auth-Type := Local, User-Password == "myPassword"
Brocade-Auth-Role = "admin",
Brocade-AVPairs1 = "HomeLF=70",
Brocade-AVPairs2 =
"LFRoleList=admin:2,4-8,70,80,128;ChassisRole=admin",
Brocade-Passwd-ExpiryDate = "11/10/2011",
Brocade-Passwd-WarnPeriod = "30"
