GS716Tv3, GS724Tv4, and GS748Tv5 Smart Switches RADIUS Server Configuration Use the RADIUS Server Configuration screen to view and configure various settings for the current RADIUS server configured on the system. To add a primary RADIUS server with a shared secret: 1. Select Security > Management Security > RADIUS > Server Configuration. 2. In the Server Address field, specify the IP address of the RADIUS server to add. 3. In the Authentication Port field, specify the UDP port number the server uses to verify the RADIUS server authentication. The valid range is 1-65535. The default value is 1812. 4. From the Secret Configured list, select Yes. You must select Yes before you can configure the RADIUS secret. After you add the RADIUS server, this field indicates whether the shared secret for this server has been configured. 5. In the Secret field, type the shared secret text string used for authenticating and encrypting all RADIUS communications between the switch and the RADIUS server. This secret must match the RADIUS encryption. 6. From the Active list, select Primary. 7. From the Message Authenticator list, enable or disable the message authenticator attribute for the selected server. The message authenticator adds protection to RADIUS messages by using an MD5 hash to encrypt each message. The shared secret is used as the key, and if the message fails to be verified by the RADIUS server, it is discarded. 8. Click the Add button.
