Switch Operating Rules for RADIUS

■

You must have at least one RADIUS server accessible to the switch.

■

The switch supports authentication and accounting using up to three
RADIUS servers. The switch accesses the servers in the order in
which they are listed by

show radius ( page 3-23). If the first server

does not respond, the switch tries the next one, and so-on. (To change
the order in which the switch accesses RADIUS servers, refer to
“Changing RADIUS-Server Access Order” on page 3-27.)

■

You can select RADIUS as the primary authentication method for each
type of access. (Only one primary and one secondary access method
is allowed for each access type.)

■

In the HP switch, EAP RADIUS uses MD5 and TLS to encrypt a
response to a challenge from a RADIUS server.
