Using the Security Tab
The navigation tabs on the top of the home page include a Security tab that lets you manage your
GS108T Gigabit Smart Switch using features under the following main menu commands and
subcommnands:
“Management Security
“User Configuration—Change Password
“RADIUS
“Authentication Type
“Port Authentication
“Basic—802.1x Configuration
“Advanced—802.1x Configuration
“Advanced—Port Authentication
“Traffic Control
“Storm Control
“Port Security
“Access
“IP Access List
“Trusted MAC
The sections that follow in this chapter cover these features and tell you how to configure them in
the GS108T Smart Switch.
Management Security
The Management Security menu lets you to manage your user configuration, RADIUS servers,
and authentication type.
User Configuration—Change Password
The User Configuration setting lets you to change the password for the switch.
To change the password:
1.
Select Security > Management Security > User Configuration > Change Password. A screen

2.
Specify the new password:
a.
Old Password
. Enter the current password to access the switch.
b.
New Password

password is 15 characters. All printable characters are allowed.
c.
Confirm New Password
. Re-enter the new password.
3.
Click

to update the password.
RADIUS
The RADIUS server refers to Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS), defined in
RFC2865. The server is used by ISPs to authenticate a user name and password before authorizing
use of the network. You can configure both a primary server and a backup server:
1.
Select Security > Management Security > RADIUS. A screen similar to the following
displays.
Figure 5-5
Note:
It is good practice to select a password that is more than eight characters
long and is a combination of numbers and letters. Names and simple words
can be easy to guess. If you forget your password, you can always press the
Factory Reset button on the switch, and the password will return to the
default value of
password

The following fields are displayed, all of which are configurable:
Host IP Address
. Specifies the IP address of the RADIUS server.
Authentication Port
. Specifies the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port number of the
Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) over LANs (EAPOL) control frame. The
default UDP port number is 1812, but other numbers can be used if the RADIUS server
can recognize them.
Number of Retries
. Specifies the number of times the switch sends the RADIUS request
to the server before giving up.
Timeout for Reply
. Specifies the number of seconds the switch waits for the RADIUS
server to respond before resending the request.
Dead Time
. Specifies the number of minutes a RADIUS server; that is not responding to
authentication requests is to be skipped, thus avoiding the wait for the request to time out
before trying the configured backup server.
Key String
. Specifies the string used by the RADIUS server as a password to identify
EAPOL control frames.
Usage Type
. Specifies the usage of the RADIUS server. The possible field values are:
Login
. The RADIUS server is used for logging in to the switch.
802.1x
. The RADIUS server is used for dot1x authentication.
All
. The RADIUS server is used for both logging in and dot1x authentication.
Active Server
. Specifies the RADIUS server (Primary or Backup) to which these settings
