Host

Enter the IP address (in dotted decimal notation) or the domain name (up to 63 
alphanumeric characters) of a RADIUS server. 

Authentication 
Port

The default port of the RADIUS server for authentication is 1812. 
You need not change this value unless your network administrator instructs you to do 
so with additional information. 

Key

Enter a password (up to 15 alphanumeric characters) as the key to be shared 
between the external authentication server and the ZyWALL. 
The key is not sent over the network. This key must be the same on the external 
authentication server and the ZyWALL. 

Timeout

Specify the timeout period (between 1 and 300 seconds) before the ZyWALL 
disconnects from the RADIUS server. In this case, user authentication fails. 
Search timeout occurs when either the user information is not in the RADIUS server 
or the RADIUS server is down. 

Apply

Click Apply to save the changes.
