Configuring RADIUS Servers
This chapter describes how to enable and configure the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service
(RADIUS), that provides detailed accounting information and flexible administrative control over
authentication and authorization processes. RADIUS is facilitated through AAA and can be enabled only
through AAA commands.
Note You c an c on figu re y ou r a cc es s p oi nt as a l oc al au th en ti cator to provide a backup for your main server or
to provide authentication service on a network without a RADIUS server. See
Chapter 6, “Configuring
Authentication Types,” for detailed instructions on configuring your access point as a local authenticator.
Note For complete syntax and usage information for the commands used in this chapter, refer to the Cisco IOS
Security Command Reference for Release 12.2.
