AAA CONFIGURATION GUIDE
Configuring RADIUS | Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) is a uniform framework used |
Authentication for | to configure the three functions for network security management. It can be |
Telnet Users | implemented by multiple protocols. |
| RADIUS configurations are made in RADIUS schemes. When performing RADIUS |
| configurations, you first create a RADIUS scheme and then specify the IP addresses |
| and UDP port numbers of the RADIUS servers for the scheme. These RADIUS |
| servers include the primary and secondary authentication/authorization severs and |
| accounting servers. In addition, you need to configure the shared key and specify |
| the RADIUS server type. |
| In practice, you can configure the above parameters as required. But you should |
| configure at least one authentication/authorization server and one accounting |
| server. If no accounting server is needed, you must configure the accounting |
| optional command. Besides, the RADIUS server port settings on the switch must |
| be consistent with those on the RADIUS servers. |
