Description
Use radius client enable to enable the RADIUS listening port of a RADIUS client.
Use undo radius client to disable the RADIUS listening port of a RADIUS client.
By default, the RADIUS listening port is enabled.
When the listening port of the RADIUS client is disabled:
No more stop-accounting requests of online users cannot be sent out or buffered, and the RADIUS server can no longer receive logoff requests from online users. After a user goes offline, the RADIUS server still has the user’s record during a certain period of time.
The buffered accounting packets cannot be sent out and are deleted from the buffer when the configured maximum number of attempts is reached, affecting the precision of user accounting.
If local authentication, authorization, or accounting is configured as the backup, the switch performs local authentication, authorization, or accounting instead after the RADIUS request fails. Local accounting is only for monitoring and controlling the number of local user connections. It does not provide the statistics function that the accounting feature generally provides.
