AR s Server Object Hierarchy


AR's Server Object Hierarchy

Now that you know a bit more about the AR commands, where do you use them? Well, the answer to that question is simple. It depends. Since AR's command line is built in a pretty structured fashion, you use certain commands based on your location in the server's objects. Let's look at how AR is built.

At the top of the Server Objects tree are two objects, Administrators and Radius. This is displayed to you when you log in to an AR cluster. This is very similar to a UNIX file system in that the object is sort of a directory. You can use the cd command to enter into either of the objects. Once in an object, there might be sub-objects. You can also cd into a sub-object. Some of AR's objects might contain a list, in which case you modify parameters in the list.

In Example 15-3, you can see that we have changed directories to the Radius object.

Example 15-3. The Radius Object
  cd Radius/ [ //localhost/Radius ]     Name = Radius     Description =     Version = 3.5.0.7     IncomingScript~ =     OutgoingScript~ =     DefaultAuthenticationService~ = local-users     DefaultAuthorizationService~ = local-users     DefaultAccountingService~ = local-file     DefaultSessionService~ =     DefaultSessionManager~ = session-mgr-1     UserLists/     UserGroups/     Policies/     Clients/     Vendors/     Scripts/     Services/     SessionManagers/     ResourceManagers/     Profiles/     Rules/     Translations/     TranslationGroups/     RemoteServers/     Advanced/     Replication/ 

If you look at Example 15-3, you can see the sub-objects of the Radius object. These include the following:

  • UserLists/

  • UserGroups/

  • Policies/

  • Clients/

  • Vendors/

  • Scripts/

  • Services/

  • SessionManagers/

  • ResourceManagers/

  • Profiles/

  • Rules/

  • Translations/

  • TranslationGroups/

  • RemoteServers/

  • Advanced/

  • Replication/

You can tell that these are sub-objects because they have a / at the end of them. The other items in the Radius object include parameters that you can set, such as IncomingScript, OutgoingScript, and DefaultAuthenticationService. It is at this level that you could use the set command to manipulate one of these values.
