The RADIUS Server Configuration page lets you configure RADIUS Global and Server configuration.
Click the
Add New Server
button to display the new RADIUS server config parameters.
Global Configuration
These setting are common for all of the RADIUS servers.
Timeout
The number of seconds, in the range
1
to
1000
, to wait for a reply from a RADIUS server before
retransmitting the request.
Retransmit
Retransmit is the number of times, in the range
1
to
1000
, a RADIUS request is retransmitted to a
server that is not responding. If the server has not responded after the last retransmit it is
considered to be dead.
Deadtime
Deadtime, which can be set to a number between
0
to
1440
minutes, is the period during which
the switch will not send new requests to a server that has failed to respond to a previous request.
This will stop the switch from continually trying to contact a server that it has already determined
as dead. Setting the Deadtime to a value greater than
0
(zero) will enable this feature, but only if
more than one server has been configured.
Key
The secret key - up to 63 characters long - shared between the RADIUS server and the switch.
The authentication messages sent to and from the RADIUS server use an authentication key, not
a password. This authentication key, or shared secret, must be the same on the RADIUS client
and server. Without this key, there is no communication between the client and server.
