Can I have a firewall between my RADIUS server and the ZipLink network?
We don’t recommend that ZipDial customers have a firewall. However, it can work, so long as you allow through the RADIUS ports (typically 1645 for authorizations and 1646 if you want accounting). Please note that if a firewall (or upstream router) on your network is blocking port 1645, RADIUS authentications will not work. • Please provide me with an example users file entry. username Password = “pass” User-Service = Framed-User, Framed-Protocol = PPP, Framed-MTU = 1500, Idle-Limit = 900 You would, of course, replace “username” and “pass” (the password should be kept in quotes) with the account’s username and password. Also, you can add other attributes as you see fit. ZipLink currently does not do attribute filtering. Note that we may begin filtering attributes if certain conditions arise in the future that require us to do so. Please note: the example user profile is the only one supported by ZipLink. Other configurations/attributes may work, but we cannot offer help in applying them
