When Adding New Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) Server the ACCT Field Set to 0

In EWS, when adding a new RADIUS server, the Accounting Port (ACCT) field gets set to 0. If a new RADIUS server is created in the CLI, the Accounting Port (ACCT) field is set to one greater than the Authorization Port (Auth) field.

Steps to repeat:

1. Create a RADIUS server from lcli.
2. Create a RADIUS server from Web Based Interface (WBI).

The results are displayed below:
