11. Refer to the following configured RADIUS Accounting profile details:
12. To edit an existing accounting profile, select the profile then select the Edit button. To add a
new policy, select the Add button.
Server ID Displays the numerical server index (1-6) for the accounting server when added to the list available
to the access point.
Host Displays the IP address or hostname of the RADIUS authentication server.
Port Displays the port on which the RADIUS server listens to traffic within the access point managed
network. The port range is 1 to 65,535. The default port is 1813.
Server Type Displays the type of AAA server in use either Host, onboard-self or onboard-controller.
Request Attempts Displays the number of attempts a client can retransmit a missed frame to the RADIUS server
before it times out of the authentication session. The available range is from 1 - 10. The default is 3.
Request Timeout Displays the time from 1 - 60 seconds for the access point’s re-transmission of request packets.
The default is 5 seconds. If this time is exceeded, the authentication session is terminated.
DSCP Displays the DSCP value as a 6-bit parameter in the header of every IP packet used for packet
classification. The valid range is from 0 - 63, with a default value of 34.
Request Proxy Mode Lists the method of proxy that browsers communicate with the RADIUS authentication server. The
mode could either be None, Through Wireless Controller or Through RF Domain Manager.
NAI Routing Enable Displays the NAI routing status. AAA servers identify clients using the NAI. The NAI is a character
string in the format of an E-mail address as either user or user@ but it need not be a valid E-mail
address or a fully qualified domain name. NAI can be used either in a specific or generic form. The
specific form, which must contain the user portion and may contain the @ portion, identifies a
single user. Each user still needs a unique security association, but these associations can be
stored on a AAA server. The original purpose of NAI was to support roaming between dialup ISPs.
Using NAI, each ISP need not have all the accounts for all of its roaming partners in a single RADIUS
database. RADIUS servers can proxy requests to remote servers for each user credential.
