Configuring user authentication
The access point can work with external Radius and LDAP Servers (AAA Servers) to provide user
database information and user authentication.
Configuring the Radius server
The Radius Server screen enables an administrator to define data sources and specify
authentication information for the Radius Server.
To configure the Radius Server:
1. Select System Configuration -> User Authentication -> Radius Server from the menu tree.
2. From within the Data Source Configuration field, use the Data Source drop-down menu to
select the data source for the Radius server.
NOTE
When using LDAP, only PEAP-GTC and TTLS/PAP are supported.
3. Use the TTLS/PEAP Configuration field to specify the Radius Server default EAP type, EAP
authentication type and a Server or CA certificate (if used).
Local An internal user database serves as the data source. Use the User
Database screen to enter the user data.
LDAP If LDAP is selected, the controller will use the data in an LDAP
server. Configure the LDAP server settings on the LDAP screen
under Radius Server on the menu tree.
