The RADIUS server is on port #2. This port is
authenticated manually. If the RADIUS server is
several hops away, it may be necessary to
authenticate the interconnection ports. Note make
sure this command is executed before auth enable
command.
Make sure there is no 802.1x or Radius server
defined. Note only one RADIUS server can be
defined for the whole network.
