Managing with <strong>RingMaster</strong><br />

Users can configure one primary RADIUS server and one secondary RADIUS server globally, across<br />

all network plans. If a user is successfully authenticated, the RADIUS server will send an Access<br />

Accept response. This response will contain a custom VSA (Trpz-RM-User-Group) for the user group<br />

to which the user belongs. <strong>RingMaster</strong> software restricts user access based on the user group<br />

returned by the RADIUS Server. If RADIUS authentication is enabled, users must specify a default<br />

user group. This user group is used if the RADIUS server does not return a VSA. If the RADIUS server<br />

returns an invalid VSA, user access is rejected.<br />

The administrator is able to configure local users. This is optional. Administrators can provision a user<br />

and not have to wait until the user is added to a central RADIUS server. Any user trying to connect to<br />

the <strong>RingMaster</strong> Server is first authenticated locally. If local authentication fails, the user is<br />

authenticated using the configured RADIUS server. If access control is enabled, there should be at<br />

least one user configured locally. This ensurse that a user can access <strong>RingMaster</strong> even if the RADIUS<br />

server is unreachable.<br />

<strong>RingMaster</strong> Server RM-200<br />

The RM-200 platform provides a means of choosing between RADIUS-based authentication and its<br />

current local authentication with regards to its Web and CLI platform management interfaces.<br />

Managing the LA-200E<br />

With the acquisition of Newbury <strong>Networks</strong>, the LA-200E is now a premier product for Trapeze <strong>Networks</strong>.<br />

Integrating the LA-200E with <strong>RingMaster</strong> allows you to manage an LA-200E using network management software.<br />

After adding the LA-200E to your network plan, you can manage, plan, and configure RFID listening APs from a<br />

central server.<br />

The integration of the LA-200E into <strong>RingMaster</strong> is supported by software version 6.4.1 or higher on the<br />

LA-200E.<br />

Adding a Managed LA-200E to <strong>RingMaster</strong><br />

To add an LA-200E to <strong>RingMaster</strong>, you must install an LA-200E in your wiring closet or have it located somewhere<br />

in your network. After installation, you need the following information to add the LA-200E to <strong>RingMaster</strong>:<br />
