Hello,
I'm just doing an audit of some old switches we still have running and looking at their configs, I see some have radius configs like this, all 3 seem to be working when I tested, but is/was the 3rd method showing as "DC3" the new way to configure this? Also is there a show command to list the status of radius on a switch?
Thanks
radius-server host 192.168.14.10 key 7 074E114Dee3B490954 radius-server host 192.168.14.11 key 7 08607C4Fsd2B551B51 ! radius server DC3 address ipv4 10.11.15.10 auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646 key 7 15533Bs110187B286B !

- @ajwhite0 Yes the radius server defined as DC3 is using the new syntax in the particular running configuration.
For testing use the command : show aaa servers
On DC3 (configuration) you can for instance add :
radius server DC3 address ipv4 10.11.15.10 auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646 key 7 15533Bs110187B286B
automate-tester username testuser password testpass
This allows the switch to periodically send test authentication requests to verify server responsiveness without manual
intervention ,

Hi
1-For command to show server
Show aaa servers
2- what difference between two way to config
First method you can only specify IP/name of server and key and port
Where second method you can additional add specific interface use to connect to server and vrf.
