Start
the RADIUS server link to use the switch’s own RADIUS server to authenticate
users accessing the switch managed network. Again, this is recommended as the secondary
means of authenticating users.
4. Set a Timeout interval (between 5 and 10 seconds) to define how long the switch waits for a
reply to a RADIUS request before retransmitting the request. The default value is 5.
Ensure the value is set long enough to compensate for the heaviest periods of data traffic
within the switch managed network.
5. Set a Retires value (between 3and 6) to define the number of times the switch transmits each
RADIUS request to the server before giving up. The default value is 3.
6. Click the Apply button to save the changes made to within the Global Settings field.
7. Click the Revert button to cancel any changes made within the Global Settings field and revert
back to the last saved configuration.
