Access Device Type Management

The access device type function is used to identify devices from different vendors. Based on the access device types configured, you can configure different RADIUS attributes for devices from different vendors, so that the access devices can well cooperate with UAM. The system pre-defines the following access device types: HP A series, HP others, Intelbras, 3Com, Huawei, Cisco, Ruijie, Microsoft and Juniper. When adding or modifying an access device, you can select a pre-defined or user-defined access device type in the device type drop-down list.

Perform the following operations to configure the access device types on the INC:

• Add/Modify an Access Device Type
  1. Click Add, or click the icon corresponding to an access device type.
  2. Input the basic information of the access device type.
  3. Click OK.

  Parameters

  Vendor Name: Name of the device vendor.

  Short Name: Short name of the device vendor.

  Device Type: Device type, which is General usually.

  Vendor ID: ID of the device vendor.
