Example
The following table describes the RADIUS information displayed by the show aaa command.
Configuring authentication-method lists
To implement one or more authentication methods for securing access to the device, you configure
authentication-method lists that set the order in which the authentication methods are consulted.
In an authentication-method list, you specify the access method (Telnet, SNMP, and so on) and the
order in which the device tries one or more of the following authentication methods:
• Local Telnet login password
• Local password for the Super User privilege level
TABLE 143 Output of the show aaa command for RADIUS
Field Description
Radius key The setting configured with the radius-server key command. At the Super User privilege level,
the actual text of the key is displayed. At the other privilege levels, a string of periods (....) is
displayed instead of the text.
Radius retries The setting configured with the radius-server retransmit command.
Radius timeout The setting configured with the radius-server timeout command.
Radius dead-time The setting configured with the radius-server dead-time command.
Radius Server For each RADIUS server, the IP address, and the following statistics are displayed:
Auth PortRADIUS authentication port number (default 1645)
Acct PortRADIUS accounting port number (default 1646)
• opens - Number of times the port was opened for communication with the server
• closes - Number of times the port was closed normally
• timeouts - Number of times port was closed due to a timeout
• errors - Number of times an error occurred while opening the port
• packets in - Number of packets received from the server
• packets out - Number of packets sent to the server
