The DEFAULT user serves two functions. The primary function of the DEFAULT user is to allow the changing between modes. The DEFAULT user also serves as a default attributes list for each user. The administrator can opt to load default attributes in the DEFAULT user file rather than the NAS.cfg file.
Note: NAS.cfg and specific USER Attributes override the default attributes.
Example DEFAULT User File - No Default Attributes
# This file is for Changing Radius modes and setting default
attributes
# TCCRadius does not need to be restarted after changing modes
user-name=DEFAULT
password=normalmode
# ACCEPT MODE
# password = accept
# UPDATE MODE
# PAP Only, No CHAP
# password = update
# Accept All Clients, Bypass Client Checking
# password = acceptallclients
# Accept Mode And Skip Client Checking
# password = acceptcl
# Enable Global Client Secret
# Adding an entry to clients.cfg like the following:
# global 123456
# tells TCCRadius to use 123456 as the shared
# secret for all clients/NAS units.
# password = acceptglobalclients
Example DEFAULT User File - Includes Some Default Attributes
# This file is for Changing Radius modes and setting default
attributes
# TCCRadius does not need to be restarted after changing modes
