HP MSR SERIES Command Reference

69
vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies the MPLS L3VPN to which the secondary RADIUS
authentication server belongs, where vpn-instance-name is a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters.
If the server is on the public network, do not specify this option.
Usage guidelines
Make sure that the port number and shared key settings of each secondary RADIUS authentication server
are the same as those configured on the corresponding server.
You can configure up to 16 secondary RADIUS authentication servers for a RADIUS scheme. If the
primary server fails, the device tries to communicate with a secondary server in active state. The device
connects to the secondary servers in the order they are configured.
When you specify a test profile for secondary authentication servers, make sure the test profile already
exists on the device. Otherwise, the device cannot detect the server status.
Two authentication servers specified for a scheme, primary or secondary, cannot have identical IP
address, port number, and VPN settings.
The shared key configured by this command takes precedence over the shared key configured with the
key authentication command.
If the specified server resides on an MPLS L3VPN, specify the VPN by using the vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name option. The VPN specified by this command takes precedence over the VPN
specified for the RADIUS scheme.
If you use the secondary authentication command to modify or delete a secondary authentication server
during an authentication process, communication with the secondary server times out. The device tries to
communicate with an active server that has the highest priority for authentication.
For security purposes, all shared keys, including shared keys configured in plain text, are saved in
ciphertext.
Examples
# For RADIUS scheme radius1, specify a secondary authentication server with the IP address 10.110.1.2
and the UDP port 1812.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] radius scheme radius1
[Sysname-radius-radius1] secondary authentication 10.110.1.2 1812
# Specify two secondary authentication servers for RADIUS scheme radius2, with the server IP addresses
of 10.110 .1.1 a n d 10 .110.1.2, and the UDP port number of 1812.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] radius scheme radius2
[Sysname-radius-radius2] secondary authentication 10.110.1.1 1812
[Sysname-radius-radius2] secondary authentication 10.110.1.2 1812
