RADIUS Server
Configuration
Authentication can be performed locally using the switch’s security database, or
remotely using a Remote Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server such as Microsoft
RADIUS. With a RADIUS server, the security database for the entire fabric
resides on the server. In this way, the security database can be managed
centrally, rather than on each switch. You can configure up to five RADIUS servers
to provide failover.
You can configure the RADIUS server to authenticate just the switch or both the
switch and the initiator device if the device supports authentication. When using a
RADIUS server, every switch in the fabric must have a network connection. A
RADIUS server can also be configured to authenticate user accounts. Refer to
Section 3
for information about user accounts. A secure connection is required to
authenticate user logins with a RADIUS server. Refer to
Section 8
for information
about secure connections.
This section describes the following tasks:
Displaying RADIUS Server Information
Configuring a RADIUS Server on the Switch
NOTE:
RADIUS server configuration requires the Fabric Security license key. To
purchase a license key, contact your authorized maintenance provider or
authorized reseller.
