IEEE 802.1X and RADIUS

An access point supporting IEEE 802.1X can be configured to communicate with two RADIUS servers. When the primary RADIUS server fails to respond, the wireless access point will try to communicate with the secondary RADIUS server. You can specify the length of timeout and the number of retries before communicating with the secondary RADIUS server after failing to communicate with the primary RADIUS server.

An IEEE 802.1X-capable wireless access point and its RADIUS server(s) share a secret key so that they can authenticate each other. In addition to its IP address, a wireless access point can identify itself by an NAS (Network Access Server) identifier. Each IEEE 802.1X-capable wireless access point must have a unique NAS identifier.
