STEP FOUR
The RAS Wizard can be used to set up a PPP Remote Access Server using modems or DSU/CSUs and dial-up
lines. The wizard can be used for one port or a range of ports. If the Wizard is used for a range or all ports, the
ports will be numbered consecutively.

Now that the parameters have been defined, enter into each menu described above, in the order presented (read
chapter 3, Using Menus, if you have not done so already). Set the parameters in each menu according to the
values you wrote in the figures above. Save the configuration to flash memory at each step when requested —
configurations saved in run memory are erased when the router is turned off. If you saved part of the configuration
to run memory for some reason, save to flash memory now using the menu option ADMIN =>WRITE
CONFIGURATION =>TO FLASH. Be sure to change the superuser password using the menu option CONFIG
=>SECURITY =>USERS =>MODIFY. The user ID, super, can remain the same, but the password must be
changed to avoid unauthorized access.
If the Radius Server does not appear to be working, try switching the UDP port setting. This often resolves Radius
problems. The menu item INFO =>AUTH. SERVERS STATUS =>RADIUS SERVERS STATUS also provides
information about the status of the Radius Server. Any status other than OK means that either the RAS configuration
is incorrect or the Radius Server configuration is incorrect. It may be necessary to reboot the router after performing
the configuration described in step three, for the changes to take effect.
