Configuring NAS-Port-Type
The following matrix shows the support of the MSR routers for this feature in different views:

|
MSR958 (JH300A/JH301A) | Yes | No |
MSR1002-4/1003-8S | Yes | Yes |
MSR2003 | No | Yes |
MSR2004-24/2004-48 | Yes | Yes |
MSR3012/3024/3044/3064 | Yes | Yes |
MSR4060/4080 | No | No |
The NAS-Port-Type attribute carried in RADIUS requests represents the user's access interface type. When a portal user log in from an interface or a service template, the value of the NAS-Port-Type attribute is as follows:
If the NAS-Port-Type is configured, the NAS-Port-Type value is the configured value.
If the NAS-Port-Type is not configured, the NAS-Port-Type value is the user's access interface type obtained by the access device.
As the access device, the BAS might not be able to correctly obtain a user's interface type when multiple network devices exist between the BAS and the portal client. For example, the access interface type obtained by the BAS for a wireless portal user might be the type of the wired interface that authenticated the user. For the BAS to send correct user interface type to the RADIUS server, perform this task to specify the correct NAS-Port-Type value.
To configure NAS-Port-Type on an interface:
Step | Command | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
1. Enter system view. | system-view | N/A |
2. Enter interface view. | interface interface-type interface-number | N/A |
3. Configure the NAS-Port-Type value. | portal nas-port-type { ethernet | wireless } | By default, the portal NAS-Port-Type value carried in RADIUS requests is the user's access interface type value obtained by the access device. |
To configure NAS-Port-Type on a service template:
Step | Command | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
1. Enter system view. | system-view | N/A |
2. Enter service template view. | wlan service-template service-template-name | N/A |
3. Configure the NAS-Port-Type value. | portal nas-port-type { ethernet | wireless } | By default, the portal NAS-Port-Type value carried in RADIUS requests is the user's access interface type value obtained by the access device. |
