NETGEAR M4500 Series Switches CLI Command Reference Manual 419
The same name can be configured for more than one authenticating servers and the name should be unique for
accounting servers.
If the 'auth' token is used, the command configures the IP address to use to connect to a RADIUS authentication
server. Up to 3 servers can be configured per RADIUS client. If the maximum number of configured servers is
reached, the command will fail until one of the servers is removed by executing the no form of the command. If
the optional port parameter is used, the command will configure the UDP port number to use to connect to the
configured RADIUS server. In order to configure the UDP port number, the IP address must match that of a
previously configured RADIUS authentication server. The port number range is 1 - 65535, with 1812 being the
default value.
Note: To reconfigure a RADIUS authentication server to use the default UDP port, set the port parameter to
1812.
If the 'acct' token is used, the command configures the IP address to use for the RADIUS accounting server. Only
a single accounting server can be configured. If an accounting server is currently configured, it must be removed
from the configuration using the no form of the command before this command succeeds. If the optional port
parameter is used, the command will configure the UDP port to use to connect to the RADIUS accounting server.
The IP address specified must match that of a previously configured accounting server. If a port is already
configured for the accounting server then the new port will replace the previously configured value. The port
must be a value in the range 1 - 65535, with 1813 being the default value.
Note: To reconfigure a RADIUS accounting server to use the default UDP port, set the port parameter to 1813.
Format radius server host auth <ip-addr| ipv6-address | hostname> [name <servername>] [port <port>]
[usage-type <8021x|login|both>]
radius server host acct <ip-addr| ipv6-address | hostname> [name <servername>] [port <port>]
Default None
Mode Global Config
5.12.20. no radius server host
The no version of this command deletes the configured server entry from the list of configured RADIUS servers.
If the RADIUS authenticating server being removed is the active server in the servers that are identified by the
same server name, then the RADIUS client selects another server for making RADIUS transactions. If the 'auth'
token is used, the previously configured RADIUS authentication server is removed from the configuration.
