enable radius

enable radius {mgmt-access | netlogin}

Description

Enables the RADIUS client on the switch.

Syntax Description

Default

RADIUS authentication is disabled for both switch management and network login by default.

Usage Guidelines

Before you enable RADIUS on the switch, you must configure the servers used for authentication and

configure the authentication string (shared secret) used to communicate with the RADIUS

authentication server.

To configure the RADIUS authentication servers, use the following command:

configure radius {mgmt-access | netlogin} [primary | secondary] server [<ipaddress> |

<hostname>] {<udp_port>} client-ip [<ipaddress>] {vr <vr_name>}

To configure the shared secret, use the following command:

configure radius {mgmt-access | netlogin} [primary | secondary] shared-secret

{encrypted} <string>

If you do not specify a keyword, RADIUS authentication is enabled on the switch for both management

and network login. When enabled, all web, Telnet, and SSH logins are sent to the RADIUS servers for

authentication. When used with a RADIUS server that supports ExtremeWare XOS CLI authorization,

each CLI command is sent to the RADIUS server for authorization before it is executed.

Use the

mgmt-access keyword to enable RADIUS authentication for switch management functions.

Use the

netlogin keyword to enable RADIUS authentication for network login.

Example

The following command enables RADIUS authentication on the switch for both management and
