6.8.3.2 Radius Proxy Server Configuration
The switch can be configured to send Radius requests to a proxy radius server. A user's access request is sent to a proxy
server if it cannot be authenticated by a local server. The proxy server forwards the access request to a proxy server that
can authenticate the user. The proxy server checks the information in the user access request and either accepts or rejects
the request. If the proxy target server accepts the request, it returns configuration information specifying the type of
connection service required to authenticate the user.
