By default, the primary authentication server of the RADIUS scheme created by the
system, whose name is "system", uses IP address of 127.0.0.1 and UDP port of
1645. The secondary authentication server uses IP address of 0.0.0.0 and UDP port
of 1812. The primary and secondary authentication server of a newly created
RADIUS scheme uses IP address of 0.0.0.0 and UDP port of 1812.
After creating a RADIUS scheme, you are supposed to set IP addresses and UDP
port numbers for the RADIUS servers, including primary/secondary
authentication/authorization servers and accounting servers. In real networking
environments, the above parameters shall be set according to the specific
requirements. However, at least you have to set one authentication/authorization
server and an accounting server. Besides, ensure that the RADIUS service port
settings on the switch is consistent with the port settings on the RADIUS server.
