8.4.13 Radius Server

RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) plays a central role in the network in providing the capabilities of authenticating, authorizing, accounting, auditing and alarm- ing, etc. and allows an organization to maintain user profiles in a central database that all remote servers can share. Since RADIUS is relatively complex to explain, we will focus here on how it acts as an 802.1x authentication server (EAP-aware RADIUS) and assists in enhancing security.

RADIUS performs the authentication function required to check the credentials of users and intermediate AccessPoints and indicates whether the users are authorized to access the AccessPoints. Enabling RADIUS is therefore the first step toward building up an 802.1x-capable environment. Even more, it is also a must-do to accommodate the recently introduced Wi-Fi Protected Access™ (WPA-EAP) to wireless networks.

Setting up RADIUS information in your AccessPoint is quite simple; just input the relevant IP address for RADIUS and the port number, which is usually set to 1812, as well as the secret key, which is identified with the given key in RADIUS. Æ Press Add to apply the set- tings.

When you finish adding RADIUS information, return to the Wireless Security Settings page, where you will be allowed to continue configuring 802.1x as the picture shows. You can choose here to have either 802.1x with static WEP or with dy- namic WEP and WPA-EAP to ensure even greater security in your wireless network.

APPLICATION

802.1x and Radius Server:

An 802.1x client needs to be combined with a Radius server. The server acts as an authenti- cation authority, the Access- Point as an authenticator and the client as supplicant.

Windows XP already comes with integrated 802.1x capabili- ties and can therefore be used directly in combination with a Radius server
