6.To modify the attributes of an existing group, select the group from the list of groups displayed and click the Edit button.

Modify the existing group’s guest designation, VLAN ID, access period and WLAN assignment.

7.If an existing group is no longer needed (perhaps obsolete in function), select the group from those displayed and click the Delete button to permanently remove the group from the list of available groups.

8.To create a new group, click the Add button and provide the following information.

Name

Define a unique group name that differentiates this new group from others with similar

 

attributes.

Guest Group

Select the Guest Group checkbox to assign this particular group (and the users within) only

 

temporary access to the local Radius server, thus restricting their authentication period to a

 

user defined access interval.

VLAN ID

Define the VLAN ID for the new group. The VLAN ID is representative of the shared SSID

 

each group member (user) employs to interoperate with one another within the switch

 

managed network (once authenticated by the local Radius server).

Time of Access Start

Set the time the group is authenticated to interoperate within the switch managed network.

 

Each user within the group will be authenticated with the local Radius server. Those group

 

members successfully authenticated are allowed access to the switch managed network

 

using the restrictions defined for the group.

Time of Access End

Set the time each group’s user base will loose access privileges within the switch managed

 

network. After this time, users within this group will not be authenticated by the local Radius

 

server. However, if a user is part of a different group that has not exceeded their access end

 

interval, then the user may still interoperate with the switch (remain authenticated) as part

 

of that group.

Available WLANs

Use the Available WLANs Add ->and Remove <- functions to move WLANs for this new

 

group from the available list to the configured list. Once on the configured list (and the

 

changes applied), the members of this group can interoperate with the switch on these

 

WLANs (once authenticated by the local Radius server).

Configured WLANs

The Configured WLANs columns displays the WLANs this new group can operate within

 

(once users are configured). Use the Add ->and Remove <- functions to move WLANs from

 

the available list to the configured list.

Time of access in

Select the checkboxes corresponding to the days of the week you would like this new group

days

to have access to the switch managed network using the WLANs configured. Of course, the

 

user base within the group still needs to be authenticated by the local Radius server first.

a. Refer to the Status field for the current state of the requests made from applet. This field displays error messages if something goes wrong in the transaction between the applet and the switch.

b. Click OK to use the changes to the running configuration and close the dialog.

c. Click Cancel to close the dialog without committing updates to the running configuration.
