RADIUS Configuration

RADIUS servers provide additional security for networks. The RADIUS server maintains a
user database, which contains per-user authentication information. The switch passes
information to the configured RADIUS server, which can authenticate a user name and
password before authorizing use of the network. RADIUS servers provide a centralized
authentication method for:
• Web Access
• Access Control Port (802.1X)
The RADIUS folder contains links to the following features:
• Global Configuration
• RADIUS Server Configuration
• Accounting Server Configuration
Global Configuration
Use the RADIUS Configuration page to add information about one or more RADIUS servers
on the network.
To access the RADIUS Configuration page, click Security > Management Security >
RADIUS > Global Configuration.
The Current Server IP Address field is blank if no servers are configured (see
Server Configuration on page 201). The switch supports up to three configured RADIUS
servers. If more than one RADIUS servers are configured, the current server is the server
configured as the primary server. If no servers are configured as the primary server, the
current server is the most recently added RADIUS server.
