Usage — For a given RADIUS server, the first instance of this command
must set both the server name and the IP address and can include any or
all of the other optional parameters. Subsequent instances of this
command can be used to set optional parameters for a given RADIUS
server.
To configure the server as a remote authenticator for the WX switch, you
must add it to a server group with the set server group command.
Do not use the same name for a RADIUS server and a RADIUS server
group.
