Configure a RADIUS Alternate Server (Oracle ILOM CLI)

Typically, RADIUS networks have multiple alternate RADIUS servers to avoid a single point of failure. The switch supports a maximum of five RADIUS servers, plus the primary. Use this task to configure alternate RADIUS servers.

1. Specify the alternate server's IP address.

   -> set /SP/clients/radius/alternateservers/Xaddress=IP_address
   ->
   

   where:

   • X is a number from 1 to 5 for each alternate RADIUS server.

   • IP_address is the IP address of the alternate server.

   For example, to set alternate server 1 with an address of 123.45.67.89, type:

   -> set /SP/clients/radius/alternateservers/1 address=123.45.67.89
   Set 'address' to '123.45.67.89'
   ->
   

2. Set the alternate server's port.

   -> set /SP/clients/radius/alternateservers/Xport=number
   ->
   

   where:

   • X is a number from 1 to 5 for each alternate RADIUS server.

   • number is the port number the alternate server will use for communication.

   For example, to set alternate server 1 to use port 130, type:

   -> set /SP/clients/radius/alternateservers/1 port=130
   Set 'port' to '130'
   ->
   

3. Set the secret for the alternate server.

   -> set /SP/clients/radius/alternateservers/Xsecret=passworded
   ->
   

   where:

   • X is a number from 1 to 5 for each alternate RADIUS server.

   • number is the port number the alternate server will use for communication.

   For example, to set alternate server 1 to use the secret openplease, type:

   -> set /SP/clients/radius/alternateservers/1 secret=openplease
   Set 'secret' to 'openplease'
   ->
