start the RADIUS service. The port_number argument is the RADIUS port
number. Valid values are from 1 to 65535.

communicating accounting requests to the RADIUS server. By default, the
RADIUS accounting port is 1813 (as defined in RFC 2138 and RFC 2139). If
your RADIUS server uses a port other than 1813, use the acct-port keyword
to configure the ACE for the appropriate port before you start the RADIUS
service. The port_number argument is the RADIUS port number. Valid values
are from 1 to 65535.
