Modifying authentication order RADIUS server information
Editing information of a RADIUS server involves changing the configuration of a RADIUS server.
Figure 41 Radius Server Information dialog box—Modify authentication order
To modify the authentication order information of a RADIUS server:
1. Select a switch in the fabric tree.
2. Select Switch > Radius Servers to open the Radius Server Information dialog box ( Figure 41 ).
3. Click the Modify Authentication Order tab, and select the server to be modified in server list at the top
of the dialog box.
4. Make changes to the Device Authentication Order or User Authentication Order drop-down lists. Select
one of the following:
• Local—Attempts to authenticate using local switch password database.
• RADIUS—Attempts to authenticate using the RADIUS server (another computer that provides
authentication).
• RADIUS Local—Attempts to authenticate using the RADIUS server first, then the local switch as a
backup. If the switch cannot contact the RADIUS server due to a network or some other problem, the
switch authenticates using the local password database.
5. Click Modify Order to save the changes, and then click Close to exit the dialog box.
