Managing RADIUS authentication servers using the CLI

You can configure additional RADIUS servers for the domain, for redundancy. You can have a maximum of three RADIUS authentication servers in the configuration. You can control the order in which the RADIUS servers respond to authentication requests.

To enable RADIUS authentication, ensure that the authentication ID that represents the RADIUS configuration is included in the authentication order you have specified for the Nortel SNAS 4050 domain (see “Specifying authentication fallback order using the CLI” on page 267).

To manage the RADIUS servers used for client authentication in the domain, use the following command:

/cfg/domain 1/aaa/auth #/radius/servers

The Radius servers menu displays.
