Management-access: This means that anyone trying to access the switch (Telnet,
SSH, Local Management) has to authenticate through the RADIUS server.

Network-access: This means that all the users have to authenticate to a RADIUS
server before they are allowed access to the network.

Any-access: Means that both Management-access and Network-access have
been enabled.
