Required 

By default, a RADIUS scheme 
named "system" has already 
been created in the system. 

Configure the type of RADIUS 
servers to be supported 

server-type { extended | 
standard } 

Optional 

 

When the third party RADIUS server is used, you can select standard or extended as the server-type 

in a RADIUS scheme; when the iMC server is used, you can select extended as the server-type in a 

RADIUS scheme. 

 

For the primary and secondary servers (authentication/authorization servers, or accounting servers) in 

a RADIUS scheme: 

When the device fails to communicate with the primary server due to some server trouble, the device 

will turn to the secondary server and exchange messages with the secondary server. 

After the primary server remains in the block state for a set time (set by the timer quiet command), the 

device will try to communicate with the primary server again when it receives a RADIUS request. If it 

finds that the primary server has recovered, the device immediately restores the communication with 

the primary server instead of communicating with the secondary server, and at the same time restores 

the status of the primary server to active while keeping the status of the secondary server unchanged. 

When both the primary and secondary servers are in active or block state, the device sends messages 

only to the primary server. 

Follow these steps to set the status of RADIUS servers:
