Parameter Definition
Enable State Enable or disable RADIUS on the switch.
Primary Server • IP Address - Enter the IP address for the Primary
RADIUS server.
• Shared Secret - Enter the Shared Secret the switch
will use for encrypting/decrypting passwords. Make
sure the Primary server is configured with the exact
same characters (case sensitive). This value is itself
encrypted and will not be displayed anywhere (Web
Agent or CLI) once set. It can be changed by simply
entering in a new shared secret.
Secondary Server • IP Address - Enter IP address for the Secondary
RADIUS server.
• Shared Secret - Enter the Shared Secret the switch
will use for encrypting/decrypting passwords. Make
sure the Secondary server is configured with the
exact same characters (case sensitive). This value is
itself encrypted and will not be displayed anywhere
(Web Agent or CLI) once set. It can be changed by
simply entering in a new shared secret.
Source IP Address Enter an IP interface address the switch will use as the
source IP address in the Access Request messages. This
value must be an IP interface address on the switch. If set,
and the IP interface becomes disabled, RADIUS will not
function because the switch will not be able to send or
receive RADIUS messages.
If left 0.0.0.0 (the default), the switch will automatically
select (auto-select) a source IP address from one of its
active interfaces. This implies you will have to add each of
the switch’s IP addresses to the Client file on the RADIUS
server since you won’t be guarantying the source IP
address.
Realm Only set this parameter if Realms are used on the RADIUS
server for organizing user accounts. If so, enter the ASCII
text Realm name for the user accounts authorized to log
into the Avaya switch.
This implies that any user account authorized to log into
this switch must reside in the same Realm.
