4.5.1.2 Configuring Authentication Types
Refer to the following to configure the WLAN authentication options available on the WS5100. Refer to the
following
• Configuring 802.1x EAP
• Configuring Kerboros
• Configuring Hotspots
• Configuring an Internal Hotspot
• Configuring External Hotspot
• Configuring Advanced Hotspot
• Configuring Dynamic MAC ACL
Configuring 802.1x EAP
The IEEE 802.1x standard ties the 802.1x EAP authentication protocol to both wired and wireless LAN
applications.
The EAP process begins when an unauthenticated supplicant (MU) tries to connect with an authenticator (in
this case, the authentication server). The switch passes EAP packets from the client to an authentication
Access Category Displays the Access Category for the intended AP traffic. The Access Categories are the
different WLAN-WMM options available to the radio.
The Access Category types are:
• Automatic/WMM– Optimized for WMM
• Voice– Optimized for voice traffic
• Video– Optimized for video traffic
• Normal– Optimized for normal traffic
• Low– Optimized for background traffic
MCast Addr 1 The address provided takes packets (where the first 4 bytes match the first 4 bytes of the
mask) and sends them immediately over the air instead of waiting for the DTIM period. Any
multicast/broadcast that does not match this mask will go out only on DTIM Intervals.
MCast Addr 2 The second multicast address also takes packets (where the first 4 bytes match the first 4
bytes of the mask) and sends them immediately over the air instead of waiting for the DTIM
period. Any multicast/broadcast that does not match this mask will go out only on DTIM
Intervals.
NOTE: If the WLAN is supporting multimedia applications (video or voice), ensure a valid
multicast address is provided. If using a 802.11bg radio, ensure “24” is also selected as
an additional Basic data rate. In addition, ensure the “multicast-packet-limit 128 vlan-id"
CLI command is properly configured under the “wireless” context.
