The SNMP menu allows you to configure the IP KVM switch so it can be recognized and

managed using industry-standard Simple Network Management Protocol software.

The RADIUS server requires the IP address, the UDP port number (1812 - default or

1645) and the shared secret. The shared secret is used to encrypt communications

and corresponds to a shared password for the RADIUS server and the client machine.

Two additional servers may be defined for backup purposes. Each server will be

tried in order, using the indicated number of retries and timeout period, which are

configurable on the same page.
Remember to enable RADIUS after configuring it. While RADIUS authentication is

enabled, the locally defined accounts on the Server Remote Control unit will not be

used, except for the SSH login.

However, if a user name of the form “name.local” is given at the RADIUS prompt, the

system will use “name”; check the password locally, and skip RADIUS authentication.

Delete all local accounts to avoid this behavior. When connecting via VNC, a login

screen is generated that asks for a RADIUS username and password.
Enable this to allow the modem to answer the phone and start a PPP connection.

Enable modem connections (PPP) via serial port/modem.
