Parameter Description Range Default
nas-ip <ip-addr>
NAS IP address to send in RADIUS packets.
You can configure a “global” NAS IP address that the

servers. If you do not configure a server-specific NAS
IP, the global NAS IP is used. To set the global NAS
IP, enter the ip radius nas-ip <ipaddr> command.

<vlan>

RADIUS server to allow the server-specific source
interface to override the global configuration.

interface’s IP address.
l If you do not associate the Source Interface with
a configured server (leave the field blank), then
the IP address of the global Source Interface will
be used.
