I'm trying to configure a ProSafe GS728TP switch to use a radius server on a Windows Server 2019 to authenticate users on the network, but the switch can not connect to the radius server.
What I've done so far;
Updated the firmware to the latest version
Configured the Radius server settings in the switch to the Windows Server IP address
Configured the Accounting server
Set the port connected to the server as Active
Set Port Authentication to Enabled
Configured workstations through Group Policy to use Wired Network Policies (IEEE 802.3)
The firewall is disabled on the server.
When i do my test from my client machine to authenticate a user, i don't see any connection from the switch to the radius server.
I tried after that to authenticate the Admin user of the switch using 'Radius - Local - None' options, and then i noticed that the switch was able to request my radius server ! and when i disable this options 'Radius - Local - None' the switch don't send any request to the radius server ?
Can you please help, on how can i configure the radius on my switch without activate the 'Radius - Local - None' ?
Have you also tried setting the port connected to the RADIUS Server into Force Authorized mode which is located on Security > Port Authentication > Advanced > Port Authentication?
