Description of Commands

Commands to Configure a RADIUS Server Host
To specify a RADIUS server host and a shared password:
•
Use the radius-server host command to define the remote RADIUS server
host and optionally assign an authentication port number.
•
Use the radius-server key command to specify the password shared with the
remote RADIUS server host.
To customize communication between the switch and the RADIUS server:
• Use the radius-server retransmit command to specify how many times the
switch transmits each RADIUS request to the server before giving up.
• Use the radius-server timeout command to specify how many seconds a
switch waits for a reply to a RADIUS request before retransmitting the
request.
•
Use the radius-server deadtime command to specify how many minutes a
RADIUS server, which is not responding to authentication requests, is passed
over by requests for RADIUS authentication.
radius-server host
The radius-server host command, in Global Configuration mode, defines the remote
RADIUS server by specifying its IP address, and optionally assigns a UDP authentication port
number. If the UDP authentication port number is not specified, the port number 1812 is
assigned. The no form of this command deletes the specified host from the RADIUS
database.
