Introduction
This document describes how Cisco Internetwork Operating System (IOS) chooses Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) Server from the list of multiple AAA Servers configured, when a new style AAA Command Line Interpreter (CLI) radius server <AAA Server name> is used.
Prerequisites
Requirements
Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of these topics:
- AAA Server is reachable from the IOS Device (referrred to as Client Router from here on)
- Client Internet Protocol Address (IP Address) configured on AAA Server
- User policies configured on AAA Server
Components Used
This document is not restricted to specific software and hardware versions.
The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.
Background Information
radius-server host <AAA Server IP address> will deprecate soon. Therefore, you need to migrate to new CLI radius server <AAA Server name>. Refer to this example from a laboratary router:
Client(config)#radius-server host 192.168.10.1
Warning: This CLI will be deprecated soon. Please move to radius server <name> CLI.
