When using LDAP-RADIUS translation, vendor specific attributes (VSA) are often used to send specific attributes as a reply to the RADIUS client. If a VSA is not present when creating a new LDAP-RADIUS translation it is now possible to create any VSA’s based on a vendors specification. This can be done from “Configuration” followed by “Vendor Specific Attributes”.

  1. Click Radius Vendors.
  2. Click Create a new RADIUS vendor.
  3. Add the Vendor ID and the Vendor name. Click Save.
  4. Go back to Vendor specific attributes and click “Create a new Vendor Specific attribute”.
  5. Select the Radius Vendor that was created in step 3 and add the ID, name and type. Click Save.
  6. Navigate to LDAP-RADIUS translation and create a new rule based on the VSA created above.

The “Vendor Specific Attributes” menu can also be used to create any custom attribute. Simply follow step 1-6 and add your own custom attributes and vendor name.
