Configuring Radius on a 2950G switch with IOS 12.1

[Shawn Roman]

Does anyone have a working a config or any ideas as to to getting radius to work on a 2950G switch with an older IOS of 12.1(22)EA1.

I have radius setup on a windows 2k8 box and all of my other switches 2960's and above have no issues. I am unable to input the nas-identifier of 32 into the config using - radius-server 32 attribute 32 include-in-access-req format %h as well as the aaa session-id common commands.

Doing a debug radius says that the radius server is not defined.

Here is a snippet of my log:

Also attached is a copy of my current running config.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Shawn

If you notice below, there is no "

aaa authorization exec default group radius_ew local". This is because, even though the device get's authenticated it fails the authorization. So if you wish to go straight into enable mode add the following to your vty line

!

line vty 0 15

privilege level 15

!

Below config is mine

login authentication Maxxam-RADIUS

Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software

IOS (tm) C2950 Software (C2950-I6Q4L2-M), Version 12.1(22)EA2, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

aaa new-model

aaa authentication login RADIUS-GROUP group radius local

aaa accounting exec RADIUS-GROUP start-stop group radius

ip radius source-interface VlanX

radius-server host 192.168.x.20 auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646 key MyKey

radius-server host 192.168.x.11 auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646 key MyKey

radius-server retransmit 3

radius-server deadtime 1

!

This should work for you

aaa authorization exec default group radius_ew local - DELETE THIS LINE

if you wish to use radius at the console login

!

line con 0

login authentication radius_ew - ADD THIS LINE

privilege level 15 - ADD THIS LINE

!

Radius on TTY lines

!

line vty 0 15

login authentication radius_ew - ADD THIS LINE

privilege level 15 - ADD THIS LINE

!

P.S. You should upgrade to 12.1(22)EA14

Let me know if this helps
