To define the Radius user permissions for switch access:
1. Select Security > Radius Server from the main menu.
2. Select the Users tab.
3. Refer to the following user information to assess whether an existing user can be used with the local
Radius server as is, requires modification or if a new user is required.
4. Refer to the Assigned Groups field to view the memberships for the existing users displayed within the
Users tab.
If the group assignment is insufficient, use the Edit or Add functions to modify/create users or modify
their existing group assignments. For guest users, only the password is editable. For normal (non-guest
users), the password and group association can be modified.
5. To modify the attributes of an existing user, select the user from the list of users displayed and click the
Edit button.
Modify the existing user’s guest designation, password, expiry date and group assignments as required
to reflect the user’s current local Radius authentication requirements.
6. If an existing user is no longer needed, select the user from those displayed and click the Delete button
to permanently remove the user from the list available.
User ID Displays the username for this specific user. The name assigned should reflect the user’s
identity and perhaps their status within the switch managed network (guest versus secure
user).
Guest User Displays whether a specific user has been defined as a guest user (with a green check) or
has been configured as permanent user. Guest users have temporary Radius server access.
Start Date Defines the time when the User’s privileges commence.
Expiry Date If the user has been assigned guest privileges, then they were also assigned a date when
their Radius privileges expire.
