RackSwitch G8000 Application Guide

Configuring RADIUS

Use the following procedure to configure RADIUS authentication on your switch.

1.Configure the Primary and Secondary RADIUS servers, and enable RADIUS authentication.

RS G8000

(config)# radius-server primary-host 10.10.1.1

RS

G8000

(config)#

radius-server

secondary-host 10.10.1.2

RS

G8000

(config)#

radius-server

enable

2.Configure the RADIUS secret and enable the feature.

RS G8000 (config)# radius-serverprimary-host 10.10.1.1 key <1-32 character secret>

RS G8000 (config)# radius-serversecondary-host 10.10.1.2 key <1-32 character secret>

3.If desired, you may change the default UDP port number used to listen to RADIUS. The well-known port for RADIUS is 1812.

RS G8000 (config)# radius-server port <UDP port number>

4.Configure the number retry attempts for contacting the RADIUS server, and the timeout period.

RS G8000 (config)# radius-server retransmit 3

RS G8000 (config)# radius-server timeout 5
