416 ExtremeWare XOS 11.0 Command Reference Guide
Security Commands
configure radius shared-secret
configure radius [primary | secondary] shared-secret {encrypted} <string>
Description
Configures the authentication string used to communicate with the RADIUS authentication server.
Syntax Description
Default
Unconfigured.
Usage Guidelines
The secret must be the same between the client switch and the RADIUS server.
The RADIUS server must first be configured for use with the switch as a RADIUS client.
The
encrypted
keyword is primarily for the output of the
show configuration
command, so the
shared secret is not revealed in the command output. Do not use it to set the shared secret.
Example
The following command configures the shared secret as “purplegreen” on the primary RADIUS server:
configure radius primary shared-secret purplegreen
