To configure the authentication and accounting settings of a group member
Open Internet Authentication Service.
In the console tree, click Remote RADIUS Server Groups.
Internet Authentication Service (Local)/Connection Request Processing/Remote RADIUS Server Groups
- Internet Authentication Service (Local)/Connection Request Processing/Remote RADIUS Server Groups
In the details pane, right-click the remote RADIUS server group that you want to configure, and then click Properties.
On the General tab, click the server that you want to configure, and then click Properties.
On the Authentication/Accounting tab, specify authentication and accounting settings.
To open Internet Authentication Service, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Internet Authentication Service.
When you have remote RADIUS server groups configured and, in RADIUS proxy server Connection Request Policies, you clear the Record accounting information on the servers in the following remote RADIUS server group check box, these groups are still sent network access server (NAS) start and stop notification messages. This creates unnecessary network traffic. To eliminate this traffic, disable NAS notification forwarding for individual servers in each remote RADIUS server group by clearing the Forward network start and stop notifications to this server check box. For more information, see Configure the authentication and accounting settings of a group member and Configure accounting.
You can configure IAS in Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition, with a maximum of 50 RADIUS clients and a maximum of 2 remote RADIUS server groups. You can define a RADIUS client using a fully qualified domain name or an IP address, but you cannot define groups of RADIUS clients by specifying an IP address range. If the fully qualified domain name of a RADIUS client resolves to multiple IP addresses, the IAS server uses the first IP address returned in the DNS query. With IAS in Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition, and Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition, you can configure an unlimited number of RADIUS clients and remote RADIUS server groups. In addition, you can configure RADIUS clients by specifying an IP address range.
Information about functional differences
Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
