A
1. Configure the Radius_1 host as a RADIUS server on Switch_1 and
Switch_2 to authenticate device logins. Specify the server IP address and
the secret with which the switches will authenticate with the server.
Configure the switches so that devices authenticate through the switches
only if the RADIUS server is unavailable.
2. Configure security on Switch_1. Create a security set (Security_Set_1) on
Switch_1.
a. Create a port group (Group_Port_1) in Security_Set_1 with Switch_1
and HBA_1 as members. The JBOD is a loop device, and is therefore,
excluded from the port group.
