MAC Authentication with an External RADIUS Server
To begin using MAC authentication:
1. Ensure that a RADIUS server is configured in ZoneDirector (Configure > AAA Servers >
RADIUS Server). See
2. Create a user on the RADIUS server using the MAC address of the client as both the
username and password. The MAC address format is a single string of characters without
punctuation. (Format: "xxxxxxxxxxxx"; not "xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" or "xx_xx_xx_xx_xx_xx".)
3. Log in to the ZoneDirector Web interface, and go to Configure > WLANs.
4. Click the Edit link next to the WLAN you would like to configure (e.g., "internal," "corpo-
rate," etc.).
5. Under Authentication Options: Method, select MAC Address.
6. Under Authentication Server, select your RADIUS Server.
7. Click OK to save your changes.
