NX-OS Radius

I am new to NX-OS, I am needing to add our ciscoMDS 9148s to allow radius login.

the commands look very similar to cisco IOS. After initial configuration I can ping to and from the server, but still not able to login. Doing a little research I saw a mention of cfs distribution, but I am not sure if it is needed or not.

currently cfs distribution is not enabled.

my current config:

HQ-MDS-1(config)# radius-server host 10.1.1.1 key password HQ-MDS-1(config)# radius-server host 10.1.1.1 auth-port 1645 HQ-MDS-1(config)# radius-server host 10.1.1.1 acct-port 1646 HQ-MDS-1(config)# radius-server host 10.1.1.1 accounting HQ-MDS-1(config)# radius-server host 10.1.1.1 key 0 password HQ-MDS-1(config)# radius-server host 10.1.1.1 key 7 password HQ-MDS-1(config)# do sh radius-server retransmission count:1 timeout value:5 deadtime value:0 total number of servers:1

following RADIUS servers are configured: 10.1.1.1: available for authentication on port:1645 available for accounting on port:1646 RADIUS shared secret:********
