Server connection between FreeRadius and NAS ISP

If we have a subscription with the VPN ISP(Virtual Private Network Internet Service Provider), and have our own FreeRadius server, we can perform integration with NAS ISP(Network Access Server ISP) . So mobile users can connect to our Local Area Network with VPN ISP.

So that integration between NAS ISP and freeradius server can run smoothly , we need to be setting in our freeradius server. Setting connection with NAS ISP is easy, edit file clients.conf in the directory /usr/local/etc/raddb, add the following lines:

client 192.168.1.2 (
secret = secret
shortname = NAS_ISP)

• 192.168.1.2 =Ip Address NAS ISP
• secret = password used by the NAS ISP as encryption and signature with our radius server
• shortname = alias domain or IP Address NAS ISP
