auth-port port-

port number. The range is from zero (0) to 65535. The default port-
number is 1812.
retransmit retries (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword retransmit then a number as the
number of attempts. This parameter overwrites the
radius-

The default is 3 attempts.
timeout seconds (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword timeout then the seconds the time
interval the switch waits for a reply from the RADIUS server. This

5 seconds.
key [ encryption-

(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword key then an optional encryption-type
and a string up to 42 characters long as the authentication key. The
RADIUS host server uses this authentication key and the RADIUS

For the encryption-type, enter either zero (0) or 7 as the encryption
type for the key entered. The options are:
• 0 is the default and means the password is not encrypted and
stored as clear text.
• 7 means that the password is encrypted and hidden.
