Configuring RADIUS

You can enable and configure RADIUS on the switch in one Chalet screen instead of entering multiple comands on the CLI. For more information about configuring RADIUS, see the "Security" section of the ExtremeXOS User Guide.

To configure RADIUS:

  1. Click Configure > Accounts to display the user list.
  2. Click the Security Options tab.
  3. Click the RADIUS tab.
  4. Click Edit at the bottom of the page.
  5. To enable RADIUS, click the Enable button in the Status field.
    Click to expand in new window
  6. Supply the information in the required fields.
    Note

    Note

    For the Shared Secret field, enter the unencrypted (plain text)
    secret, not the encrypted version. The switch will encrypt the shared secret for you.
    Note

    Note

    For the Client IP Address field, you must choose an IP interface existing on the switch so it is contained within the virtual router.
  7. When finished configuring RADIUS, click Save Config.
To unconfigure this feature (by pushing down the "unconfigure" commands to the switch), you must remove all the text in any configured fields, disable the feature, and then apply and save your changes.
