Configuring the Radius Server

The Radius Server screen enables an administrator to define data sources and specify
authentication information for the Radius Server.

To configure the Radius Server:

1. Select System Configuration -> User Authentication -> Radius Server from the menu tree.

CAUTION
Ensure IPSec has been properly configured to protect communications with the external Radius
server. Changes will not be applied otherwise.

2. From within the Data Source Configuration field, use the Data Source drop-down menu to

select the data source for the Radius server.

NOTE

When using LDAP, only PEAP-GTC and TTLS/PAP are supported.

Local

An internal user database serves as the data source. Use the User
Database
screen to enter the user data. For more information, see

“Managing the Local User Database”

on page 208.

LDAP

If LDAP is selected, the switch will use the data in an LDAP server.
Configure the LDAP server settings on the LDAP screen under
Radius Server on the menu tree. For more information, see

“Configuring LDAP authentication”

on page 204.
