HP ProCurve 5300xl Series Access Security Guide

RADIUS Authentication and Accounting
Switch Operating Rules for RADIUS
Switch Operating Rules for RADIUS
■ You must have at least one RADIUS server accessible to the switch.
■ The switch supports authentication and accounting using up to three
RADIUS servers. The switch accesses the servers in the order in
which they are listed by show radius (page
5-24). If the first server does
not respond, the switch tries the next one, and so-on. (To change the
order in which the switch accesses RADIUS servers, refer to
“Changing RADIUS-Server Access Order” on page 5-28.)
■ You can select RADIUS as the primary authentication method for each
type of access. (Only one primary and one secondary access method
is allowed for each access type.)
■ In the HP switch, EAP RADIUS uses MD5 and TLS to encrypt a
response to a challenge from a RADIUS server.
