20.2.2.20 radius-server key

Command: radius-server key

no radius-server key

Function: Specifies the key for the RADIUS server (authentication and accounting); the “no

radius-server key” command deletes the key for RADIUS server.

Parameters: is a key string for RADIUS server, up to 16 characters are allowed.

Command mode: Global Mode
Usage Guide:
The key is used in the encrypted communication between the switch and the

specified RADIUS server. The key set must be the same as the RADIUS server set,
otherwise, proper RADIUS authentication and accounting will not perform properly.

Example: Setting the RADIUS authentication key to be “test”.
Switch(Config)# radius-server key test

20.2.2.21 radius-server retransmit

Command: radius-server retransmit

no radius-server retransmit

Function: Configures the re-transmission times for RADIUS authentication packets; the “no

radius-server retransmit” command restores the default setting

Parameters: is a retransmission times for RADIUS server, the valid range is 0 to 100.

Command mode: Global Mode
Default:

Usage Guide: This command specifies the retransmission time for a packet without a RADIUS

server response after the switch sends the packet to the RADIUS server. If
authentication information is missing from the authentication server, AAA
authentication request will need to be re-transmitted to the authentication server. If
AAA request retransmission count reaches the retransmission time threshold without
the server responding, the server will be considered to as not working, the switch
sets the server as invalid.

Example: Setting the RADIUS authentication packet retransmission time to five times.
Switch(Config)# radius-server retransmit 5
