NOTE
The Radius server's Timeout and Retries should be less than what is defined for an MU's timeout
and retries. If the MU's time is less than the server's, a fall back to the secondary server will not
work.
3. Refer to the Accounting field and define the following credentials for a primary and secondary
Accounting Server Enter the IP address of the primary and secondary server acting as the Radius accounting server.
Address
Accounting Port Enter the TCP/IP port number for the primary and secondary server acting as the Radius accounting data source.
The default port is 1813.
Accounting Shared Provide a shared secret (password) for user credential authentication with the primary or secondary Radius
Secret accounting server.
Accounting Timeout Enter a value (between 1 and 300 seconds) to indicate the number of elapsed seconds causing the switch to time
out a request to the primary or secondary accounting server.
Accounting Retries Enter a value between 1 and 100 to indicate the number of times the switch attempts to reach the primary or
secondary Radius accounting server before giving up.

4. Refer to the Advanced field to define the authentication protocol used with the Radius Server.
PAP PAP - Password Authentication Protocol sends a username and password over a network to a server that compares
the username and password to a table of authorized users. If the username and password are matched in the table,
server access is authorized.
CHAP CHAP is an encrypted authentication method based on Microsoft's challenge/response authentication protocol.
DSCP/TOS Optionally mark packets with a DiffServ CodePoint (DSCP) in its header. The DSCP value is stored in the first 6 bits of
the Type of Service (ToS) field that is part of the standard IP header. The DCSP values are associated with a
forwarding treatment called Per Hop Behaviors (PHB). Service can be provisioned (if necessary) by assigning a DCSP
point code from 1 - 6.
