HOW TO: Change the Radius Socket Ports on the ConnectPort LTS

Configuring from the Linux bash shell:

This demonstrates how to manually configure the Radius ports from the bash shell of the ConnectPort LTS unit.  Since system file changes are not preserved after reboots, the /usr2 user space is used.

The radius client obtains the radius socket ports to use via the "/etc/services" file. The client only looks up the lines starting with "radius" and "radacct".

• Modify the /etc/services file as follows. Change lines starting with "radius" and "radacct" to the socket numbers you wish. For example:
  radius 1645/tcp
  radius 1645/ucp
  radacct 1646/tcp
  radacct 1646/ucp

   

• After editing /etc/services copy it to /usr2
  cp /etc/services /usr2

   

• Edit /usr2/rc.user and add the following line just above "exit 0":
  cp -a /usr2/services /etc/services

   

• reboot

Note: If you factory default the unit, the "/usr2/rc.user" script file is moved to "/usr2/rc.user.old#" and the default rc.user file will be restored.
