RADIUS CONFIGURATION SCREEN
When to Use
To configure the Radius client in the switch to restrict access to the management functions of the
Local Management screens, by way of the COM port or network TELNET connection.
NOTE: The configuration and Enable State of the Radius client will be stored in
NVRAM and loaded on power-up. If the client is properly configured and enabled, the
platform will create the Radius client and enable it at boot time, superseding legacy
authentication. Otherwise, the legacy authentication becomes operational.
Radius Client parameters can also be set using the Network Tools screen described in
Chapter 11
This screen allows you to set the necessary parameters to centralize the Authentication,
Authorization, and Accounting of the network resources. For information about Radius Client and
how it functions, refer to
