WIRELESS Kerberos Enabled Wireless NIC Configuration

ADAPTER,

This section provides an example of how a user configures the

WIRELESS Print Server to use the Kerberos authentication via the wired Telnet session.

This example assumes Symbol’s Access Point and RF card is used and the Print Server has not been configured for Kerberos authentication. It also assumes that the KDC, Access Point and the Print Server are in the same realm.

To set up the Print Server for Kerberos authentication, the administrator first has to enable Kerberos in the Access Point according to Symbol’s instructions. Symbol’s Access Point must have its Network time set up with the correct time server. Once the Access Point is configured, the Print Server is ready to be configured for Kerberos authentication.

Configuring the Print Server for Kerberos

Authentication

1.Create a user in the Windows 2000 server that identifies the Print Server.

NOTE: The user name should be the Print Server’s name. The password selected will be used as the Kerberos password and should be set with no expiration.

2.In a secure networked environment, log in as a root user via Telnet in the wired LAN.

3.Once logged in, use the Telnet commands to set up the wireless LAN parameters (e.g. SSID = 103, operating mode = Infra Structure mode, etc.) that match the Access Point configuration.

In addition to the normal wireless LAN parameter settings, use the following commands to enable Kerberos on the wireless LAN interface and Kerberos for authentication (minimum settings):

4.Set the wireless LAN interface parameters to enable Kerberos. store kerberos opts auth
