at IP address 10.1.6.203, UDP authentication port 1812, and an authentication password of
“pwsecret.” As previously noted, the “server secret” password entered here must match that already
configured as the Read-Write (rw) password on the RADIUS server

NOTE: The RADIUS client can only be enabled on the switch once a RADIUS server is
online, and its IP address(es) has been configured with the same password the RADIUS
client will use.
