Server name
You can specify either an IP address (IPv4/IPv6) or a host name.
Shared secret
This is the password that is to be shared by the RADIUS server and
the management modules.
You must specify the same value as the RADIUS server.
We recommend that you use a complicated password consisting of 32
or more alphanumeric characters.
Authentication method
This is the authentication method to be used for RADIUS
authentication.
You can select PAP, CHAP, or MS-CHAPv2.
Port number
Specify the port number to be used to communicate with RADIUS
servers. The management module will attempt to connect to the
specified port number.
Timeout time
During communication with the RADIUS server, if the RADIUS server
does not respond within the specified time, the communication
attempt is determined to be a failure. If a value is specified for the
number of resends, resend is performed.
Number of resends
This specifies the number of times that resend is to be performed
when communication with the RADIUS server times out. If the
RADIUS server still does not respond, the management module tries
to communicate with the next RADIUS server in the registered order.
If communication with all of the registered RADIUS servers fails, user
authentication fails.
