A Realm provides a mechanism by which a RADIUS manager can organize user accounts. Consult the RADIUS vendor’s documentation on how to create Realms on the server. Once created, user accounts are placed in the realms. The realm name is also configured on the NADs and when the NADs send Access Request messages, the user name is appended with an “@” and the Realm name.
For example: User Bob in the AvayaRealm would log into the switch with Bob. The Avaya switch would send the Access Request message with user Bob@AvayaRealm. The RADIUS server, upon receiving the request, would look for Bob in the AvayaRealm.
