Chapter 14 Configuring RADIUS and TACACS+ Servers
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure per-server
RADIUS server communication. This procedure is required.
1. Enter global configuration mode.
configure terminal
2. Enable AAA.
aaa new-model
3. Specify the IP address or host name of the remote RADIUS server host.
• (Optional) For
auth-port port-number , specify the UDP
destination port for authentication requests.
• (Optional) For
acct-port port-number , specify the UDP
destination port for accounting requests.
• (Optional) For
timeout seconds , specify the time interval that the
access point waits for the RADIUS server to reply before
retransmitting. The range is 1…1000.
This setting overrides the radius-server timeout global
configuration command setting. If no timeout is set with the radius-
server host command, the setting of the radius-server
timeout command is used.
• (Optional) For
retransmit retries , specify the number of times
a RADIUS request is resent to a server if that server is not responding
or responding slowly. The range is 1…1000.
If no retransmit value is set with the radius-server host
command, the setting of the radius-server retransmit global
configuration command is used.
• (Optional) For
key string , specify the authentication and
encryption key used between the access point and the RADIUS
daemon running on the RADIUS server.
To configure the access point to recognize more than one host entry associated
with a single IP address, enter this command as many times as necessary, making
sure that each UDP port number is different. The access point software searches
for hosts in the order that you specify them. Set the timeout, retransmit, and
encryption key values to use with the specific RADIUS host.
radius-server host {hostname | ip-address} [auth-
port port-number] [acct-port port-number] [timeout
seconds] [retransmit retries] [key string]
4. Enter SSID configuration mode for an SSID when you need to enable
accounting.
TIP The key is a text string that must match the encryption key used on the RADIUS
server. Always configure the key as the last item in the radius-server host
command. Leading spaces are ignored, but spaces within and at the end of the
key are used. If you use spaces in your key, don’t enclose the key in quotation
marks unless the quotation marks are part of the key.
