Configuring Radius Server Hosts - Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Configuration Manual

Configuring RADIUS
• Transmission retry count and timeout interval.
• Accounting and authentication attributes.
Step 5 If needed, configure periodic RADIUS server monitoring.

Configuring RADIUS Server Hosts

You must configure the IPv4 or IPv6 address or the host name for each RADIUS server that you want to use
for authentication. All RADIUS server hosts are added to the default RADIUS server group. You can configure
up to 64 RADIUS servers.
To configure a RADIUS server host, perform this task:
SUMMARY STEPS
1. switch# configure terminal
2. switch(config) #radius-server host {ipv4-address | ipv6-address | host-name}
3. switch(config)# exit
4. (Optional) switch# show radius-server
5. (Optional) switch# copy running-config startup-config
