RADIUS COMMANDS
RADIUS
-SERVER KEY
radius-server key
Overview This command sets a global secret key for RADIUS authentication on the device.
The shared secret text string is used for RADIUS authentication between the device
and a RADIUS server.
Note that if no secret key is explicitly specified for a RADIUS server, the global
secret key will be used for the shared secret for the server.
Use the no variant of this command to reset the secret key to the default (null).
Syntax
radius-server key <key-string>
no radius-server key
When in secure mode, the syntax in config files will be:
radius-server key-encrypted <encrypted-key-string>
Default The RADIUS server secret key on the system is not set by default (null).
Mode Global Configuration
Usage Use this command to set the global secret key shared between this client and its
RADIUS servers. If no secret key is specified for a particular RADIUS server using the
radius-server host command, this global key is used.
After enabling AAA authentication with the aaa authentication login command,
set the authentication and encryption key using the radius-server key command
so the key entered matches the key used on the RADIUS server.
Examples To set the global secret key to allied for RADIUS server, use the following
commands:
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# radius-server key allied
Parameter Description
key <key-string> Shared secret among RADIUS server and 802.1X
client.
key-encrypted
<encrypted-key-string>
This parameter indicates that the key is in its
encrypted form. You would not normally enter this
command. Instead, if you enter key and secure
mode is enabled, the running config contains this
parameter instead of the key parameter. This
indicates that in secure mode the device stores keys
in the running config in encrypted form instead of
in plain text.
