Issue:

Using RADIUS vendor specific attributes for the CS9000 (v3.5.0+) on Steel Belted Radius.

Solution:

Steel Belted Radius uses vendor dictionary files to present any Vendor Specific attributes.
When adding a new RAS Client you can then select "Perle CS9000" as the Make/Model. Steel Belted Radius will then include the Perle CS9000 vendor specific attributes to appear on the attribute table.

To configure/enable the CS9000 dictionary, follow the instructions below (details can also be found in your Steel Belted Radius manual):

Note: backup your files before editing

Edit the //radius/service/vendor.ini file:
Add the following entry:
     vendor-product = Perle CS9000
     dictionary = cs9000
     ignore-ports = no
     port-number-usage = per-port-type
     send-class-attribute = no
     help-id = 2000

Edit the //radius/service/dictiona.dcm file:
Add the following entry:
     @cs9000.dct

Create the dictionary file by copying Perle dictionary file a file called "cs9000.dct" into the //radius/service directory.

Then Stop and reStart the Steel Belted Radius service to enable the changes.
