The SNMP menu allows you to congure the IP KVM switch so it can be recognized and
managed using industry-standard Simple Network Management Protocol software.
The RADIUS server requires the IP address, the UDP port number (1812 - default or
1645) and the shared secret. The shared secret is used to encrypt communications
and corresponds to a shared password for the RADIUS server and the client machine.
Two additional servers may be dened for backup purposes. Each server will be
tried in order, using the indicated number of retries and timeout period, which are
congurable on the same page.
Remember to enable RADIUS after conguring it. While RADIUS authentication is
enabled, the locally dened accounts on the Server Remote Control unit will not be
used, except for the SSH login.
However, if a user name of the form “name.local” is given at the RADIUS prompt, the
system will use “name”; check the password locally, and skip RADIUS authentication.
Delete all local accounts to avoid this behavior. When connecting via VNC, a login
screen is generated that asks for a RADIUS username and password.
Enable this to allow the modem to answer the phone and start a PPP connection.
