Snmp Support - ZyXEL Communications Vantage RADIUS 50 User Manual

Vantage RADIUS User's Guide
Accounting data can easily be exported to spreadsheets, databases, and specialized billing software.
Dynamic DNS Support
With Dynamic DNS (Domain Name System) support, you can have a static hostname alias for a dynamic IP
address, allowing the host to be more easily accessible from various locations on the Internet. You must
register for this service with a Dynamic DNS service provider.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual client computers to obtain the TCP/IP
configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. Vantage RADIUS has built-in DHCP server
capability (disabled by default) which means it can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS
servers to all systems that support the DHCP client.
Security
Secure WLAN connections against wireless eavesdropping and other attacks with the supported IEEE
802.1x security standard, including the WLAN security protocols EAP-MD5 and PEAP

SNMP Support

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used for exchanging management information
between network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP protocol suite. Your Vantage RADIUS
supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a remote station to maintain and monitor Vantage
RADIUS over the network.
Certificates
Vantage RADIUS provides a private Certificate Authority (CA), which can be used to create a server
certificate (also called digital IDs). Certificates are based on public-private key pairs. Certificates provide a
way to exchange public keys for use in authentication. The certificates are self-signed so there is no need to
purchase them from commercial certificate providers.
Remote Access
The administrator can access Vantage RADIUS by using web browsers such as Netscape Navigator or
Microsoft Internet Explorer. This system allows a remote user to view or modify system configuration via
Internet.
