RADIUS authentication
When using the Nortel Switched Firewall 2.3.3 you can log in to the firewall using RADIUS

to a single or multiple RADIUS servers configured for authentication. RADIUS authentication
applies to both stand-alone and cluster configurations.
Use the following commands to configure the firewall for the RADIUS support:
1.
Add a user.
2.
Select a group.
Edit the user created in Step 1 and specify the group as “admin” or “oper.”
3.
Set a password.
Specify a password for user “tester1.”
4.
Apply the changes.
