The following syntax example shows how to specify multiples user roles and locales if you choose to
create the cisco-avpair attribute: shell:roles="admin,aaa" shell:locales="L1,abc". Use a comma
"," as the delimiter to separate multiple values.
• For a cluster configuration, add the management port IP addresses for both fabric interconnects. This
configuration ensures that remote users can continue to log in if the first fabric interconnect fails and
the system fails over to the second fabric interconnect. All login requests are sourced from these IP
addresses, not the virtual IP address used by Cisco UCS Manager.

global timeout value specified on the RADIUS General tab. The
default is 5 seconds.
Timeout field
