Viewing RADIUS Statistics

Syntax 

show radius host <IPV6-ADDR | IP-ADDR>]

Shows general RADIUS configuration, including the server IP addresses. Optional form shows data for a specific RADIUS host. To use show radius, the server's IP address must be configured in the switch, which. requires prior use of the radius-server host command. See Accounting services for more information.

When the switch is in enhanced secure mode, you are prompted about displaying sensitive information before the command is executed. For more information, see Secure mode(FIPS).
