RADIUS Server RADIUS server’s index number, IP address, and UDP authentication port.

Realm-Type Realm defines who has to go through the RADIUS server for authentication.

• Management-access: This means that anyone trying to access the switch

(Telnet, SSH, Local Management) has to authenticate through the RADIUS

server.

• Network-access: This means that all the users have to authenticate to a RADIUS

server before they are allowed access to the network.

• Any-access: Means that both Management-access and Network-access have

been enabled.
