Configuring Custom RADIUS Authentication Plug-Ins
The custom RADIUS authentication plug-ins provide the same functions as the flexible RADIUS authentication plug-ins, but are designed to deliver better system performance. To use a custom plug-in, you must provide a Java class that implements the SPI defined in the RADIUS client library. Use this SPI to specify which fields and field values to include in RADIUS accounting packets. The RADIUS client library is part of the SAE core API.
See the documentation for the RADIUS client library in the SRC software distribution in the folder SDK/doc/sae/net/juniper/smgt/sae/radiuslib or the SAE core API documentation on the Juniper Networks Web site at
http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/management/sdx/api-index.html
For a sample implementation, see the following directory in the SRC software distribution: SDK/plugin/java/src/net/juniper/smgt/sample/radiuslib/RadiusPacketHandlerImpl.java.
To set up custom RADIUS authentication plug-ins:
- Click Configure, expand Shared>SAE, and then expand the SAE group for which you want to configure RADIUS plug-ins.
- In the side pane, expand Configuration>Plug Ins.
- Expand the plug-in that you created for custom RADIUS authentication, and then click Custom RADIUS Authentication.
The Custom RADIUS Authentication pane appears.
- Click Create, enter information as described in the Help text in the main pane, and then click Apply.
