Administration Console Access 3-35

3.5.23 Main Menu->Ports->Port Security->Radius

Use the Radius menu option to configure the advanced security settings of the switch to limit the access to the management interfaces. There are two advanced security options beyond the basic password protection: RADIUS client authentication and 802.1X port authentication. If the user has a RADIUS server on the network, authentication of management access can be conducted through the RADIUS server. This does not affect traffic passing through the switch, but only authenticates access to the switch management. The same is true for 802.1X port authentication. Allow only users with specific IP addresses to access the management features, thus preventing unauthorized personnel from accessing the switch. The 802.1X is located in the Advanced Switch Configuration->Port Base Access Control Configuration Menu.
