The following example shows how to configure RADIUS transmission retry count and timeout interval
for a server:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# radius-server host server1 retransmit 3
switch(config)# radius-server host server1 timeout 10
switch(config)# exit
switch# show radius-server
switch# copy running-config startup-config

Configuring Accounting and Authentication Attributes for RADIUS Servers

You can specify that a RADIUS server is to be used only for accounting purposes or only for
authentication purposes. By default, RADIUS servers are used for both accounting and authentication.
You can also specify the destination UDP port numbers where RADIUS accounting and authentication
messages should be sent.
To configure the accounting and authentication attributes for RADIUS servers, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configure terminal
Step 2
switch(config) #radius-server host
{ipv4-address | ipv6-address | host-name}
acct-port udp-port
Step 3
switch(config)# radius-server host
{ipv4-address | ipv6-address | host-name}

Note The retransmission count value specified for
a RADIUS server overrides the count
specified for all RADIUS servers in
Specifies the transmission timeout interval for a
specific server. The default is the global value.
Note The timeout interval value specified for a
RADIUS server overrides the interval value
specified for all RADIUS servers in
Exits configuration mode.
(Optional) Displays the RADIUS server
configuration.
(Optional) Copies the running configuration to the
startup configuration.
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
(Optional) Specifies a UDP port to use for RADIUS
accounting messages.The default UDP port is 1812.
