five types of connections: Telnet to a serial port, Telnet to the admin port (23), serial
CLI, PPP dial-in and SSH.

To specify the authentication mode:
1. For RADIUS authentication, issue a Server RADIUS command.
SERVER RADIUS PRIMARY|SECONDARY IP=<
radius_ip
>
SECRET=<
secret
> USER-RIGHTS=<
attr
> [AUTHPORT=<
udp
>]
[TIMEOUT=<

>] [RETRIES=<
retry
>]
You must specify the server’s IP address, the UDP port to be used and a
“secret” to be used. You must also specify a user-rights attribute value that
matches a value in the RADIUS server’s dictionary.
