Apply, verify, and save the configuration. RADIUS authentication features The switch supports the following RADIUS authentication features: • Supports RADIUS client on the switch, based on the protocol definitions in RFC 2138 and RFC 2866. • Allows RADIUS secret password up to 32 bytes. • Supports secondary authentication server so that when the primary authentication server is unreachable, the switch can send client authentication requests to the secondary authentication server. Use the /cfg/sys/radius/cur command to show the currently active RADIUS authentication server. • Supports user-configurable RADIUS server retry and time-out values: • Time-out value = 1-10 seconds • Retries = 1-3 • The switch will time out if it does not receive a response from the RADIUS server in one to three retries. The switch will also automatically retry connecting to the RADIUS server before it declares the server down. • Supports user-configurable RADIUS application port. The default is 1645/User Datagram Protocol (UDP)-based on RFC 2138. Port 1812 is also supported. • Allows network administrator to define privileges for one or more specific users to access the switch at the RADIUS user database. • Allows the administrator to configure RADIUS backdoor and secure backdoor for Telnet, SSH, HTTP, and HTTPS access.
