3-31
Hostname is the hostname of the remote RADIUS server.
0-65535 is the optionally defined UDP port for the RADIUS authentication
server. The default port is 1812.
cr is a command return that configures the RADIUS server host without a
UDP port designation.
3. Use the radius-server key command in Global Configuration mode to define the
shared encryption key that is exchanged between the RADIUS server and BSR
RADIUS client, as shown below:
MOT(config)#radius-server key <WORD>
where:
WORD is the shared encryption key text.
Use the following options to change the default RADIUS server settings:
• Use the radius-server retransmit command in Global Configuration mode to
specify the number of retry attempts to get a response from an active RADIUS
server, as shown below:
MOT(config)#radius-server retransmit {<0-100>}
where:
0-100 is the number of retransmissions. The default is 3 retransmissions.
Note: It is recommended that the authentication key text string be more than
22 characters in length.
Caution: Ensure that the RADIUS server authentication key on the BSR is
the same as the RADIUS server authentication key on your RADIUS server.
If the keys are mismatched, communication does not occur between the BSR
and RADIUS server.
