Configuring RADIUS Server Configuration Page
Selection Criteria
RADIUS Server Host Address
–Use the drop-down menu to select the IP address of the RADIUS
server to view or configure. Select Add to configure additional RADIUS servers.
Primary Server -
Sets the selected server to the Primary (Yes) or Secondary (No) server. If you
configure multiple RADIUS servers with the same RADIUS Server Name, designate one server as
the primary and the other(s) as the backup server(s). The switch attempts to use the primary server
first, and if the primary server does not respond, the switch attempts to use one of the backup
servers with the same RADIUS Server Name. If the server is not set as Primary, by default it is set as
Secondary.
Message Authenticator
- Enable or disable the message authenticator attribute for the selected
server.
Configurable Data
RADIUS Server Host Address
- IP Address or Hostname of the configured RADIUS server.
Hostnames are composed of series of labels concatenated with dots. Each label must be between 1
and 63 characters long, and the entire hostname has a maximum of 253 characters. This object
cannot be changed after creation.
Port
- The UDP port used by this server. The valid range is 0 - 65535. The default port for RADIUS
authentication is 1812.
Secret
- The shared secret for this server. This is an input field only.
Apply
- The Secret will only be applied if this box is checked. If the box is not checked, anything
entered in the Secret field will have no affect and will not be retained. This field is only displayed if
the user has READW RITE access.
RADIUS Server Name
- Shows the RADIUS server name. To change the name, enter up to 31
alphanumeric characters. Spaces, hyphens, and underscores are also permitted. If you do not
assign a name, the server is assigned the default name Default-RADIUS-Server. You can use the
same name for multiple RADIUS Authentication servers. RADIUS clients can use RADIUS servers
with the same name as backups for each other.
Non-Configurable Data
Current
- Indicates whether the selected RADIUS server is the current server (Yes) or a backup
server (No). If more than one RADIUS server is configured with the same name, the switch selects
one of the servers to be the current server from the group of servers with the same name. When the
switch sends a RADIUS request to the named server, the request is directed to the server selected
as the current server. Initially the primary server is selected as the current server. If the primary
server fails, one of the other servers becomes the current server. If the primary server is not
configured, the current server is the most recently configured RADIUS server.
