RADIUS Commands

Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) is a system that uses a central server running RADIUS software to control access to RADIUS-aware devices on the network. A RADIUS server contains a database of multiple user name/password pairs with associated privilege levels for each user or group that require management access to a switch using the console port, Telnet, or Web.
