Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Specifies a RADIUS key for all RADIUS servers. You can
specify that the key-value is in clear text format (0), is type-6
encrypted (6), or is type-7 encrypted (7). The Cisco NX-OS
software encrypts a clear text key before saving it to the
running configuration. The default format is clear text. The
maximum length is 63 characters.
By default, no RADIUS key is configured.

If you already configured a shared secret using
the generate type7_encrypted_secret
command, enter it in quotation marks, as shown
in the second example. For more information,
