RADIUS User Pool

About this task

A user pool defines policies for individual user access to local controller or service platform RADIUS resources. User pools are a convenient means of providing RADIUS resources based on the pool's unique permissions (temporary or permanent). A pool can contain a single user or group of users.

To configure a RADIUS user pool and unique user IDs:

Procedure

Select
