RADIUS Authentication and Accounting 
Configuring a RADIUS Server To Specify Per-Port CoS and Rate-Limiting Services 
Syntax: show port-access authenticator < port-list > 
For ports, in < port-list > that are configured for authentication, this command indicates 
whether there are any RADIUS-assigned features active on the port(s). (Any ports in 
< port-list > that are not configured for authentication do not appear in this listing.) 
Port: Port number of port configured for authentication. 
Status: Port connection status: 
Open = active connection with an external device 
Closed = no active connection with an external device 
Current VLAN ID: VLAN ID (VID) of the VLAN currently supporting the active connection. 
Current Port CoS: Indicates the status of the current 802.1p priority setting for inbound traffic. 
No-override: Indicates that no RADIUS-assigned 802.1p priority is currently active on 
the indicated port. (For more on traffic prioritization for the 5300xl switches, refer to 
the chapter titled “Quality of Service (QoS): Managing Bandwidth More Effectively” in 
the 
Advanced Traffic Management Guide for your switch.) 
0 - 7: Indicates that the displayed 802.1p priority has been assigned by a RADIUS server 
to inbound traffic on the indicated port for a currently active, authenticated client 
session. This assignment remains active until the session ends. 
% Curr.Rate Limit Inbound: Indicates the status of the current rate-limit setting for inbound 
traffic. 
No-override: No RADIUS-assigned rate-limit is currently active on the indicated port. 
(For more on rate-limiting, refer to the chapter titled “Port Traffic Controls” in the 
Management and Configuration Guide for your switch.) 
0 - 100: Indicates that the displayed rate-limit has been assigned by a RADIUS server to 
inbound traffic on the indicated port for a currently active, authenticated client session. 
This assignment remains active until the session ends. 
RADIUS ACL Applied?: Indicates whether a RADIUS-assigned ACL is currently active on the 
port. 
Yes: An ACL has been assigned by a RADIUS server to inbound traffic on the indicated 
port for a currently active, authenticated client session. This assignment remains 
active until the session ends. 
No: There is no RADIUS-assigned ACL currently active on the indicated port.
