RADIUS Client
Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) is a logon authentication protocol
that uses software running on a central server to control access to RADIUS-aware
devices on the network. An authentication server contains a database of multiple user
name/password pairs with associated privilege levels for each user or group that require
management access to a switch.
radius-server host
This command specifies primary and backup RADIUS servers and authentication
parameters that apply to each server. Use the no form to restore the default values.
Syntax
[no] radius-server index host {host_ip_address} [auth-port auth_port]
[acct-port acct_port] [timeout timeout] [retransmit retransmit] [key key]
• index - Allows you to specify up to five servers. These servers are queried in
sequence until a server responds or the retransmit period expires.
• host_ip_address - IP address of server.
• auth_port - RADIUS server UDP port used for authentication messages.
(Range: 1-65535)
• acct_port - RADIUS server UDP port used for accounting messages.
(Range: 1-65535)
• timeout - Number of seconds the switch waits for a reply before resending a
request. (Range: 1-65535)
• retransmit - Number of times the switch will try to authenticate logon access via
the RADIUS server. (Range: 1-30)
