WX switch and configure them into two load-balancing server groups,

Configuration

swampbirds and shorebirds:

Scenario

 

1Configure RADIUS servers. Type the following commands:

WX1200# set radius server pelican address 192.168.253.11 key elm WX1200# set radius server seagull address 192.168.243.12 key fir WX1200# set radius server egret address 192.168.243.15 key pine WX1200# set radius server sandpiper address 192.168.253.17 key oak

2Place two of the RADIUS servers into a server group called swampbirds. Type the following command:

WX1200# set server group swampbirds members pelican seagull

3Enable load balancing for swampbirds. Type the following command:

WX1200# set server group swampbirds load-balance enable

4Place the other RADIUS servers in a server group called shorebirds. Type the following command:

WX1200# set server group shorebirds members egret pelican sandpiper

5Enable load balancing for shorebirds. Type the following command:

WX1200# set server group shorebirds load-balance enable
