<strong>Access</strong> <strong>Point</strong> Configuration<br />
Configuring RADIUS Client Authentication<br />
• Retransmit Attempts: The number of times the access point tries<br />
to resend a request to the RADIUS server before authentication fails.<br />
(Range: 1 - 30)<br />
■ Secondary Radius Server Setup: Configure a secondary RADIUS<br />
server to provide a backup in case the primary server fails. The access<br />
point uses the secondary server if the primary server fails or becomes<br />
inaccessible. Once the access point switches over to the secondary server,<br />
it periodically attempts to establish communication again with primary<br />
server. If communication with the primary server is re-established, the<br />
secondary server reverts to a backup role.<br />
To Set RADIUS Server Parameters:<br />
1. Select the Configuration tab.<br />
2. Click the [Radius] button.<br />
3. For the primary RADIUS server, type the IP address in the IP Address field.<br />
4. In the Port field, specify the UDP port number used by the RADIUS server<br />
for authentication. The default and recommended port number is 1812.<br />
5. In the Secret Key field, specify the shared text string that is also used by<br />
the RADIUS server.<br />
6. (Optional) For the Timeout and Retransmit Attempts fields, accept the<br />
default values unless you experience problems connecting to the RADIUS<br />
server over the network.<br />
7. (Optional) If you have a secondary RADIUS server in the network, specify<br />
its IP address and other parameters in the appropriate fields. Otherwise,<br />
leave the IP address setting as all zeros (0.0.0.0).<br />
8. Click the [Apply Changes] button.<br />
