RADIUS Authentication and Accounting

Configuring RADIUS Accounting

must match the encryption key used on the specified RADIUS

server. For more information, refer to the “[key < key-string >]”

parameter on page 5-15. (Default: null)

2. Configure accounting types and the controls for sending reports to the

RADIUS server.

• Accounting types: exec (page 5-36), network (page 5-35), com-

mands (page 5-36), or system (page 5-36)

• Trigger for sending accounting reports to a RADIUS server: At

session start and stop or only at session stop

3. (Optional) Configure session blocking and interim updating options

• Updating: Periodically update the accounting data for sessions-in-

progress

• Suppress accounting: Block the accounting session for any

unknown user with no username access to the switch

1. Configure the Switch To Access a RADIUS Server

Before you configure the actual accounting parameters, you should first

configure the switch to use a RADIUS server. This is the same as the process

described on page 5-15. You need to repeat this step here only if you have not

yet configured the switch to use a RADIUS server, your server data has

changed, or you need to specify a non-default UDP destination port for

accounting requests. Note that switch operation expects a RADIUS server to

accommodate both authentication and accounting.

Syntax: [no] radius-server host < ip-address >

Adds a server to the RADIUS configuration or (with no)

deletes a server from the configuration.

[acct-port < port-number >]

Optional. Changes the UDP destination port for

accounting requests to the specified RADIUS server. If

you do not use this option, the switch automatically

assigns the default accounting port number. (Default:

1813)
