Configuring radius Server on Switch?
Description
Authentication
RADIUS (Remote Authorization Dial-In User Service) servers provide security for networks. Radius servers provide authentication and authorization for networks. The Radius server maintains a user database, which contains authentication information. The Switch passes information to the configured Radius server, which can authenticate a username and password before authorizing the use of the network.
