Hi all,

I want to create two groups which will be authenticated with RADIUS server with different level of accesibility to the network.

I know that if I creating authentication with LDAP server I can create two groups and associated them with different groups od LDAP server by specifying indyvidual CN.

Could you tell me, if I could to this the same with RADIUS? If yes, how can I do this?

    You may set up your Radius server to support Fortinet VSA.

    VENDOR		Fortinet	12356

    BEGIN-VENDOR Fortinet
    ATTRIBUTE Fortinet-Group-Name 1 string
    ATTRIBUTE Fortinet-Client-IP-Address 2 ipaddr
    ATTRIBUTE Fortinet-Vdom-Name 3 string
    ATTRIBUTE Fortinet-Client-IPv6-Address 4 octets
    ATTRIBUTE Fortinet-Interface-Name 5 string
    ATTRIBUTE Fortinet-Access-Profile 6 string

    #
    # Integer Translations
    #

    END-VENDOR Fortinet


    FGT can check the return "Fortinet-Group-Name" value "radius_group1" to do group match
    config user group
        edit "group_radius"
            set member "vdom1rad"
                config match
                    edit 1
                        set server-name "vdom1rad"
                        set group-name "radius_group1"
                    next
                end
        next
    end

    Thank You.

    But I wanna ask what if I couldn't change RADIUS settings?

    I think about something like this:

    I will create local user account on Fortigate but instruct to check password on RADIUS server.

    Then I will associate the policy with this user/users.

    1-Create a remote radius group.

    2-Create a user and enable "match user on RADIUS server" with the name of radius settings

    3-Create different user groups with your local users

     

    In this case for authentication users should be exist in FortiGate Local User and also in Radius server and password will be used from radius server.
