Context config>system>security>radius
Description
This command adds a RADIUS server and configures the RADIUS server IP address, index, and key
values.
Up to five RADIUS servers can be configured at any one time. RADIUS servers are accessed in order
from lowest to highest index for authentication requests until a response from a server is received. A
higher-indexed server is only queried if no response is received from a lower-indexed server (which
implies that the server is not available). If a response from a server is received, no other RADIUS
servers are queried. It is assumed that there are multiple identical servers configured as backups and
that the servers do not have redundant data.
The no form of the command removes the server from the configuration.
Default
no RADIUS servers are configured
Parameters
index — the index for the RADIUS server. The index determines the sequence in which the
servers are queried for authentication requests. Servers are queried in order from lowest to
highest index.
Values
1 to 5
