13.2.5 RADIUS Configuration
The TTY interface can also be used to configure RADIUS settings. After entering the IPA for the RADIUS
server, users will be prompted for both a username
and password to logon to the unit. This username
and password combination will be verified against the RADIUS database, and not the local database.
The local password database will only be used for front panel craft port access in the event the RADIUS
configuration is making the unit otherwise inaccessible.
