Field Description
Use internal
radius server
Select one of the following from the drop-down menu:
• To use the authentication server provided with the 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway, ensure the
checkbox beside the Use internal radius server field is selected. If this option is selected,
you do not have to provide the Radius IP and Radius Key; they are automatically provided.
If the option for the internal RADIUS server is enabled, configure user accounts on the AP
via the Cluster > User Management tab. For more information, see Chapter 7: “Managi ng
User Accounts”.
• To use an external authentication server, ensue the checkbox beside the Use internal
radius server field is deselected. If you deselect this checkbox, you must supply a Radius
IP and Radius Key of the server you want to use.
Note: The RADIUS server is identified by its IP address and UDP port numbers for the dif-
ferent services it provides. On the current release of the 9160 G2 Wireles s Gateway,
the RADIUS server User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port s used by the access point
are not configurable. (The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway is hard-coded to use RADIU S
server UDP port 1812 for authentication and port 1813 fo r accounting.)
Radius IP
Enter the Radius IP in the text box.
The Radius IP is the IP address of the
RADIUS
server.
(The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway internal authentication server is
127.0.0.1
.)
For information on setting up user accounts, see Chapter 7: “Managing User Accounts”.
Radius Key
Enter the Radius Key in the text box.
The Radius Key is the shared secret key for the RADIUS server. The text you enter will be displayed
as “ * ” characters to prevent others from seeing the RADIUS key as you type.
(The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway internal authentication server key is
secret
.)
This value is never sent over the network.
Enable radius
accounting
Click the checkbox beside “Enable radius accounting” if you want to track and measure the resources a
particular user has consumed such system time, amount of data transmitted and received, an d so on.
