Configuring RADIUS Client
You can define primary and secondary server communication information, and for each RADIUS server,
the RADIUS port number to use when talking to the RADIUS server. The default port value is 1645. The
client IP address is the IP address used by the RADIUS server for communicating back to the switch.
RADIUS commands are described in Table 19.
