Type
SpecifytheIPversionthattheRADIUSserveruses.
YoucantogglebetweentheaddresstypestoconfigureIPv4andIPv6globalRADIUS

Address
EntertheIPv4orIPv6addressfortheprimaryglobalRADIUSserver.Bydefault,eachVAP
usestheglobalRADIUSsettingsthatyoudefinefortheAPatthetopoftheVAPpage.
WhenthefirstwirelessclienttriestoauthenticatewiththeAP,theAPsendsan

authenticationrequesttotheprimaryserver.Iftheprimaryserverrespondstothe
authenticationrequest,theAPcontinuestousethisRADIUSserverastheprimaryserver,
andauthenticationrequestsaresenttotheaddressyouspecify.
IftheIPv4RADIUSIPAddressTypeoptionisselectedintheprevious
field,entertheIP
addressoftheRADIUSserverthatallVAPsusebydefault,forexample192.168.10.23.If
theIPv6RADIUSIPAddressTypeoptionisselected,entertheIPv6addressoftheprimary
globalRADIUSserver,forexample2001:0db8:1234::abcd.

Enterupto
threeIPv4orIPv6addressestouseasthebackupRADIUSservers.Thefield
labelisRADIUSIPAddresswhentheIPv4RADIUSIPAddressTypeoptionisselectedand
RADIUSIPv6AddresswhentheIPv6RADIUSIPAddressTypeoptionisselected.
Ifauthenticationfailswiththeprimaryserver,each
configuredbackupserveristriedin
sequence.TheIPv4orIPv6addressmustbevalidinorderfortheAPtoattemptto
contacttheserver.
