RADIUS Server authentication

RADIUS servers allow external authentication of users by means of a remote authentication database. The remote authentication database is maintained by a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server. In conjunction with Wireless User Authentication, you can use a RADIUS server data- base to authenticate users seeking access to the wireless services, as well as the authorized user list maintained locally within the Gateway.

If you select WPA-802.1x, the screen expands.

Click the Configure RADIUS Server button.

The Configure RADIUS Server screen appears.

Enter your RADIUS Server information in the appropriate fields:

RADIUS Server Addr/Name: The default RADIUS server name or IP address that you want to use.

RADIUS Server Secret: The RADIUS secret key used by this server. The shared secret should have the same characteristics as a nor- mal password.

Alt RADIUS Server Addr/Name: An alter-

nate RADIUS server name or IP address, if available.

Alt RADIUS Server Secret: The RADIUS secret key used by this alternate server. The shared secret should have the same characteristics as a normal password.

RADIUS Server Port: The port on which the RADIUS server is listening, typically, the default 1812.

Click the Save Changes button.
