Switch Operating Rules for RADIUS

■ You must have at least one RADIUS server accessible to the switch.
The switch supports authentication and accounting using up to three
■
RADIUS servers. The switch accesses the servers in the order in
which they are listed by show radius (page 5-33). If the first server does
not respond, the switch tries the next one, and so-on. (To change the
order in which the switch accesses RADIUS servers, refer to
"Changing RADIUS-Server Access Order" on page 5-38.)
You can select RADIUS as the primary authentication method for each
■
type of access. (Only one primary and one secondary access method
is allowed for each access type.)
In the ProCurve switch, EAP RADIUS uses MD5 and TLS to encrypt
■
a response to a challenge from a RADIUS server.
