Select the Security:802.1x Port Authentication:RADIUS
Server dialog.
This dialog allows you to enter the data for one, two or three RADIUS
servers.
Click "Create entry" to open the dialog window for entering the IP ad-
dress of a RADIUS server.
Confirm the IP address entered using "OK".
You thus create a new row in the table for this RADIUS server.
In the "Shared secret" column you enter the character string which
you get as a key from the administrator of your RADIUS server.
With "Primary server" you name this server as the first server which
the Switch should contact for port authentication queries. If this serv-
er is not available, the Switch contacts the next server in the table.
"Selected server" shows which server the Switch actually sends its
queries to.
With "Delete entry" you delete the selected row in the table.
Select the Security:802.1x Port Authentication:Port
Configuration dialog.
In the "Port control" column you select "auto" for the ports for which
you want to activate the port-related network access control.
Select the Security:802.1x Port Authentication:Glo-
bal dialog.
With "Function" you enable the function.
