instances can be configured. The port parameter is used to specify authentication port number,
which must be the same as the specified authentication port in the RADIUS server, the default port
number is 1812. If this port number is set to 0, the specified server is regard as non-authenticating.
This command can be used repeatedly to configure multiple RADIUS servers communicating with
the switch, the configured order is used as the priority for the switch authentication server. When the
first server has responded (whether the authentication is successed or failed), switch does not send
the authentication request to the next. If primary is specified, then the specified RADIUS server will
be the primary server. It will use the cipher key which be configured by radius-server key
global command if the current RADIUS server not configure key. Besides, it can designate
the current RADIUS server only use 802.1x authentication or telnet authentication via access-mode
option. It is not configure access-mode option and all services can use current RADIUS server by
default.
Example:
Setting the RADIUS authentication server address as 2004:1:2:3::2.
Switch(config)#radius-server authentication host 2004:1:2:3::2
