Users Guide

RADIUS groups and VRFs have one-to-one mapping. If a VRF is congured with one RADIUS group, then you
cannot use the same VRF with another RADIUS group. When the VRF is removed, then the corresponding
RADIUS group is also removed automatically.
Example
Dell(conf)#radius-server group group1
Dell(conf-radius-group)#radius-server vrf vrf1 source-interface
gigabitethernet 1/42
Dell(conf)#radius-server group group2
Dell(conf-radius-group)#radius-server vrf default
