RADIUS Configuration Example 
Network requirements 
As shown in 
, it is required to configure the switch to let the RADIUS server assign an IP 
address to the Telnet user and authenticate and keep accounts on the user (record the online duration 
of the Telnet user).  
On the RADIUS server (an iMC server, using the default port for authentication and accounting), the 
Telnet user’s username and password and the shared key expert have been configured for packet 
exchange with the switch.  
On the switch, it is required to configure the shared key for packet exchange with the RADIUS server as 
expert
, and configure the system to remove the domain name of a username before sending it to the 
RADIUS server.
