Viewing RADIUS server group information

Syntax

show server-group radius

Displays the same information as the show radius command, but displays the servers in their server groups.


[NOTE: ]

NOTE: For the 3800, 5400zl, and 8200zl switches, when the switch is in enhanced secure mode, you are prompted about displaying sensitive information before the command is executed. See Secure Mode (3800, 3810, 5400zl, and 8200zl Switches).

Viewing and changing the SNMP access configuration

Syntax

snmp-server mib hpswitchauthmib <excluded|included>

included

Enables manager-level SNMP read/write access to the switch authentication configuration (hpSwitchAuth) MIB.

excluded

Disables manager-level SNMP read/write access to the switch authentication configuration (hpSwitchAuth) MIB.

Default: included

Syntax

show snmp-server

The output for this command has been enhanced to display the current access status of the switch authentication configuration MIB in the Excluded MIBs field.

Example

To disable SNMP access to the switch authentication MIB and then display the result in the Excluded MIB field, execute the following two commands.

Disabling SNMP access to the authentication MIB and displaying the result

An alternate method of determining the current Authentication MIB access state is to use the show run command.

Using the show run command to view the current authentication MIB access state

Viewing authorization information

Syntax

show authorization

Configures authorization for controlling access to CLI commands. When enabled, the switch checks the list of commands supplied by the RADIUS server during user authentication to determine if a command entered by the user can be executed.

Example of show authorization command

Viewing RADIUS Statistics

Syntax

show radius [host <ip-addr>]

Shows general RADIUS configuration, including the server IP addresses. Optional form shows data for a specific RADIUS host. To use show radius, the server's IP address must be configured in the switch, which. requires prior use of the radius-server host command. See Accounting services for more information.

For the 3800, 5400zl, and 8200zl switches, when the switch is in enhanced secure mode, you are prompted about displaying sensitive information before the command is executed. For more information, see Secure Mode (3800, 3810, 5400zl, and 8200zl Switches).

Values for show radius host output

Term Definition
Round Trip Time The time interval between the most recent Accounting-Response and the Accounting-Request that matched it from this RADIUS accounting server.
Pending Requests The number of RADIUS Accounting-Request packets sent to this server that have not yet timed out or received a response. This variable is incremented when an accounting-Request is sent and decremented due to receipt of an Accounting-Response, a timeout or a retransmission.
Retransmissions The number of RADIUS Accounting-Request packets retransmitted to this RADIUS accounting server. Retransmissions include retries where the Identifier and Acct-Delay have been updated, as well as those in which they remain the same.
Timeouts The number of accounting timeouts to this server. After a timeout the client may retry to the same server, send to a different server, or give up. A retry to the same server is counted as a retransmit as well as a timeout. A send to a different server is counted as an Accounting-Request as well as a timeout.
Malformed Responses The number of malformed RADIUS Accounting-Response packets received from this server. Malformed packets include packets with an invalid length. Bad authenticators and unknown types are not included as malformed accounting responses.
Bad Authenticators The number of RADIUS Accounting-Response packets which contained invalid authenticators received from this server.
Unknown Types The number of RADIUS packets of unknown type which were received from this server on the accounting port.
Packets Dropped The number of RADIUS packets which were received from this server on the accounting port and dropped for some other reason.
Access Requests The number of RADIUS Access-Requests the switch has sent since it was last rebooted. (Does not include retransmissions.)
Accounting Requests The number of RADIUS Accounting-Request packets sent. This does not include retransmissions.
Access Challenges The number of RADIUS Access-Challenge packets (valid or invalid) received from this server.
Access Accepts The number of RADIUS Access-Accept packets (valid or invalid) received from this server.
Access Rejects The number of RADIUS Access-Reject packets (valid or invalid) received from this server.
Responses The number of RADIUS packets received on the accounting port from this server.

Viewing RADIUS authentication statistics

Syntax

show authentication

Displays the primary and secondary authentication methods configured for the Console, Telnet, Port-Access (802.1X), and SSH methods of accessing the switch. Also displays the number of access attempts currently allowed in a session.

show radius authentication

Displays NAS identifier and data on the configured RADIUS server and the switch interactions with this server. Requires prior use of the radius-server host command to configure a RADIUS server IP address in the switch, see Accounting services.

Example of RADIUS authentication information from a specific server

Viewing port-access information

The show port-access summary command displays the dynamically changed client limit settings.

Syntax

show port-access summary [radius-overridden]

Displays summary configuration information for all ports, including the ports that have client limits set by RADIUS VSAs.

radius-overridden

Displays only the ports with client limits that are overridden by RADIUS attributes.


[NOTE: ]

NOTE: If the command no aaa port-access authentication <port-list> client-limit is executed, the port access is in port-mode.

If the 802.1X client-limit is configured with a value from 1-32, the port access is in user-mode.


Example of summary configuration information showing RADIUS overridden client limits

To display the configuration information for just those ports that are dynamically overridden by RADIUS attributes, use the show port-access summary radius-overridden command.

Example of output for client-limit values that are RADIUS overridden

Viewing RADIUS accounting statistics

Syntax

show accounting

Lists configured accounting interval, "Empty User" suppression status, session ID, accounting types, methods, and modes.

show radius accounting

Lists accounting statistics for the RADIUS servers configured in the switch (using the radius-server host command).

show accounting sessions

Lists the accounting sessions currently active on the switch.
