Configuring RS Access Security

Security Configuration

You can configure up to five RADIUS server targets on the RS. A timeout is set to tell the RS how long to wait for a
response from RADIUS servers.

Note

Verify parameter values before saving radius commands to the active or startup
configuration file on the RS. Any misconfiguration can effectively lock you out of
the CLI.

To configure RADIUS security, enter the following commands in Configure mode:
