Use the Authentication Server Configuration page to control management
access based on a list of user names and passwords configured on a
RADIUS or TACACS+ remote access authentication server, and to
authenticate client access for IEEE 802.1X port authentication (see
page 77)
NOTE: This guide assumes that RADIUS and TACACS+ servers have already
been configured to support AAA. The configuration of RADIUS and
TACACS+ server software is beyond the scope of this guide. Refer to the
documentation provided with the RADIUS and TACACS+ server software.

These parameters are displayed:
Common Server Configuration
◆ Timeout – The time the switch waits for a reply from an authentication
server before it resends the request. (Range: 3-3600 seconds;
Default: 15 seconds)
◆ Dead Time – The time after which the switch considers an
authentication server to be dead if it does not reply. (Range:
0-3600 seconds; Default: 300 seconds)
Setting the Dead Time to a value greater than 0 (zero) will cause the
authentication server to be ignored until the Dead Time has expired.
However, if only one server is enabled, it will never be considered dead.
RADIUS/TACACS+ Server Configuration
◆ Enabled – Enables the server specified in this entry.
◆ IP Address – IP address or IP alias of authentication server.
