N3048P Radius LDAP SSH login configuration
I have spent 3, 8hr days trying to get a N3048P on a radius login over SSH (no telnet)
I've used the following guides and have not made any progress:
https://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/04/how10768/how-to-configure-radius-or-tacacs-authentication-for-switch-management-on-n-series-switches?lang=en
https://gbe0.com/networking/dell/switch-radius-authentication
Here are my config setups. Please note, the switch I'm working on is a spare switch. Subnet 172.19.3.X is a subnet that's currently in use by production. Network settings on this is just so I can have a workstation reach the switch via SSH/Telnet. I've been doing the configuration through console. The 172.19.3.2 (test switch) can ping the Radius server. I've tried the following configurations:
Config 1
en
conf
interface vlan 1
ip address 172.19.3.2 255.255.255.0
exit
ip default-gateway 172.19.3.1
exit
conf
username admin password FakePassword privilege 15
radius server timeout 3
radius server attribute 8 include-in-access-req
radius server key
radius server attribute 31 mac format ietf lower-case
radius server auth 172.20.1.27
primary
name "RadiusServerName"
exit
aaa authentication login "networkList" local radius
aaa authentication enable "enableNetList" none
aaa authorization exec "Exec_Auth_List" local radius
ip https authentication local radius
Config2
en
conf
interface vlan 1
ip address 172.19.3.2 255.255.255.0
exit
ip default-gateway 172.19.3.1
exit
conf
username admin password FakePassword privilege 15
radius server timeout 3
radius server attribute 8 include-in-access-req
radius server key
radius server attribute 31 mac format ietf lower-case
radius server auth 172.20.1.27
primary
name "RadiusServerName"
exit
aaa authentication login "networkList" local radius
aaa authentication enable "enableNetList" none
aaa authorization exec "Exec_Auth_List" local radius
ip https authentication local radius
Config3
en
conf
interface vlan 1
ip address 172.19.3.2 255.255.255.0
exit
ip default-gateway 172.19.3.1
exit
conf
username admin password FakePassword privilege 15
exit
conf
crypto key generate rsa
y
crypto key generate dsa
y
ip ssh server
no ip http server
ip http secure-server
aaa authentication login "defaultList" radius local
aaa authentication enable "enableList" radius enable
aaa authorization exec "dfltExecAuthList" radius local
radius server auth 172.20.1.27
primary
name "RadiusServerName"
key FakeKey
exit
line ssh
enable authentication default
login authentication default
I've tried using the following username formats:
Username
domain\username
username@domain.com

Hi,
Are you able to connect to ssh without radius? Does radius work with other connection methods? Is the switch firmware up to date? What error are you getting?

"Are you able to connect to ssh without radius?"
Yes, I can login via SSH without using radius
"Does radius work with other connection methods?"
If I understand what you're asking, Yes. We use the Radius server for other methods of connection.
"Is the switch firmware up to date?"
Yes, the switch is on the latest 6.5.x.x firmware
"What error are you getting?"
I am prompted with a username screen, I enter the username, then password and then prompted with the username section again.

Could you please provide the correct CLI command to fix that? I tried the following:
aaa authentication enable networkList Radius
but the networkList is still showing local
