7.Refer to the Accounting field and define the following credentials for a primary and secondary Radius Server.

Accounting Server	Enter the IP address of the primary and secondary server acting as the Radius accounting
Address	server.
Accounting Port	Enter the TCP/IP port number for the primary and secondary server acting as the Radius
	accounting data source. The default port is 1813.
Accounting Shared	Provide a shared secret (password) for user credential authentication with the primary or
Secret	secondary Radius accounting server.
Accounting Timeout	Enter a value (between 1 and 300 seconds) to indicate the number of elapsed seconds
	causing the switch to time out on a request to the primary or secondary accounting server.
Accounting Retries	Enter a value between 1 and 100 to indicate the number of times the switch attempts to
	reach the primary or secondary Radius accounting server before giving up.
Accounting Mode	Use the Accounting Mode drop-down menu to define the accounting mode as either Start-
	Stop, Stop Only or Start-Interim-Stop. Define the interval (in seconds) used with the
	selected accounting mode.

8.Select the Re-authenticationcheckbox to force periodic re-authentication with the Radius server. Periodic repetition of the authentication process provides ongoing security for current authorized connections. Define an interval between 30 and 65535 seconds.

9.Refer to the Advanced field to define the authentication protocol used with the Radius Server.

PAP	PAP - Password Authentication Protocol sends a username and password over a network to
	a server that compares the username and password to a table of authorized users. If the
	username and password are matched in the table, server access is authorized.
CHAP	CHAP is an encrypted authentication method based on Microsoft's challenge/response
	authentication protocol.
DSCP/TOS	Optionally mark packets with a DiffServ CodePoint (DSCP) in its header. The DSCP value is
	stored in the first 6 bits of the Type of Service (ToS) field that is part of the standard IP header.
	The DCSP values are associated with a forwarding treatment called Per Hop Behaviors (PHB).
	Service can be provisioned (if necessary) by assigning a DCSP point code from 1 - 6.

Configuring an External Radius Server for Optimal Switch Support

The switch’s external Radius Server should be configured with switch specific attributes to best utilize the user privilege values assignable by the Radius Server. The following two values should be configured on the external Radius Server for optimal use with the switch:

•Motorola user privilege values

•User login source
