The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Table 69
Advanced Application > AAA > RADIUS Server Setup
LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Authentication
Server
Use this section to configure your RADIUS authentication settings.
Mode
This field only applies if you configure multiple RADIUS servers.
Select
index-priority
and the Switch tries to authenticate with the first
configured RADIUS server, if the RADIUS server does not respond then
the Switch tries to authenticate with the second RADIUS server.
Select
round-robin
to alternate between the RADIUS servers that it
sends authentication requests to.
Timeout
Specify the amount of time in seconds that the Switch waits for an
authentication request response from the RADIUS server.
If you are using
index-priority
for your authentication and you are
using two RADIUS servers then the timeout value is divided between the
two RADIUS servers. For example, if you set the timeout value to 30
seconds, then the Switch waits for a response from the first RADIUS
server for 15 seconds and then tries the second RADIUS server.
Index
This is a read-only number representing a RADIUS server entry.
IP Address
Enter the IP address of an external RADIUS server in dotted decimal
notation.
UDP Port
The default port of a RADIUS server for authentication is
1812
. You
need not change this value unless your network administrator instructs
you to do so.
Shared Secret
Specify a password (up to 32 alphanumeric characters) as the key to be
shared between the external RADIUS server and the Switch. This key is
not sent over the network. This key must be the same on the external
RADIUS server and the Switch.
Delete
Check this box if you want to remove an existing RADIUS server entry
from the Switch. This entry is deleted when you click
Apply
.
Apply
Click
Apply
to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The
Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the
Save
link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-
volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel
Click
Cancel
to begin configuring this screen afresh.
Accounting
Server
Use this section to configure your RADIUS accounting server settings.
Timeout
Specify the amount of time in seconds that the Switch waits for an
accounting request response from the RADIUS accounting server.
Index
This is a read-only number representing a RADIUS accounting server
entry.
IP Address
Enter the IP address of an external RADIUS accounting server in dotted
decimal notation.
UDP Port
The default port of a RADIUS accounting server for accounting is
1813
.
You need not change this value unless your network administrator
instructs you to do so.
