Parameters
ipv4-address: Specifies the IPv4 address of the primary RADIUS authentication server.
port-number: Specifies the service port number of the primary RADIUS authentication server, a UDP port
number in the range of 1 to 65535. The default setting is 1812.
key { cipher | simple } string: Sets the shared key for secure communication with the primary RADIUS
authentication server.
• cipher string: Sets a ciphertext shared key. The string argument is case sensitive.
In non-FIPS mode, the key is a string of 1 to 1 17 characters.
In FIPS mode, the key is a string of 15 to 1 17 characters.
simple string: Sets a plaintext shared key. The string argument is case sensitive.
•
In non-FIPS mode, the key is a string of 1 to 64 characters.
In FIPS mode, the key is a string of 15 to 64 characters and must contain digits, uppercase letters,
lowercase letters, and special characters.
Usage guidelines
Make sure that the service port and shared key settings of the primary RADIUS authentication server are
the same as those configured on the server.
Two authentication servers specified for a scheme, primary or secondary, cannot have identical IP
address and port number settings.
The shared key configured by this command takes precedence over the shared key configured with the
key authentication command.
If you use the primary authentication command to modify or delete the primary authentication server
during an authentication process, communication with the primary server times out. The device tries to
communicate with an active server that has the highest priority for authentication.
For security purposes, all shared keys, including shared keys configured in plain text, are saved in
ciphertext.
Examples
# Specify the primary authentication server with IP address 10.1 10.1.1, UDP port number 1812, and
plaintext shared key 123456TESTauth&! for RADIUS scheme radius1.
