9.6.3 Configuring the RADIUS Server
Setting the RADIUS Configuration
A RADIUS server policy is a unique authentication and authorization configuration for receiving user connection requests,
authenticating users and returning the configuration information necessary for the RADIUS client to deliver service to the user.
An access point’s requesting client is the entity with authentication information requiring validation. The access point’s local
RADIUS server has access to a database of authentication information used to validate client authentication requests.
The RADIUS server ensures the information is correct using authentication schemes like PAP, CHAP or EAP. The user's proof of
identification is verified, along with, optionally, other information. The access point’s RADIUS server policy can also be
configured to refer to an external LDAP resource to verify the user's credentials. The creation and utilization of a single RADIUS
server policy is supported.
To manage the access point’s RADIUS server policy:
1. Select Configuration tab from the Web user interface.
2. Select Services.
3. Expand the RADIUS menu option and select RADIUS Server.
Group If the user has been defined as a guest, use the Group drop-down menu to assign the user
a group with temporary access privileges. If the user is defined as a permanent user,
select a group from the group list. If there’s no groups listed relevant to the user’s intended
access, select the Create icon and create a new group configuration suitable for the user
membership. For more information, see Creating RADIUS Groups on page 9-41.
