Supported Radius Servers; Settings For Radius Servers; Settings For Management Modules - Hitachi COMPUTE BLADE 500 SERIES Management Module Setup Manual

For RADIUS authentication, the following two authentication methods are
available:
• Management modules perform user authentication by using the user
accounts registered to each module. If authentication fails, user
authentication is performed by using RADIUS servers.
• User authentication is performed only by using RADIUS servers.
You can register a maximum of three RADIUS servers. If you register multiple
RADIUS servers, during user authentication, the management module will
connect to the RADIUS servers in the order in which they were registered.
The management module then performs user authentication with the first
RADIUS server to which a connection is successfully established. If the
management module cannot connect to any of the registered RADIUS
servers, user authentication fails.
