Name
Define a unique group name that differentiates this new group from others with
similar attributes.
Guest Group Select the Guest Group checkbox to assign this particular group (and the users
within) only temporary access to the local Radius server, thus restricting their
authentication period to a user defined access interval.
VLAN ID Define the VLAN ID for the new group. The VLAN ID is representative of the shared
SSID each group member (user) employs to interoperate within the controller
managed network (once authenticated by the local Radius server).
Time of Access Start
Set the time the group is authenticated to interoperate. Each user within the group
is authenticated with the local Radius server. Those group members successfully
authenticated are allowed access to the controller using the restrictions defined
for the group.
Time of Access End
Set the time each group's user base will loose access privileges within the
controller managed network. After this time, users within this group will not be
authenticated by the local Radius server. However, if a user is part of a different
group that has not exceeded their access end interval, the user may still
interoperate with the controller (remain authenticated) as part of that group.
Rate Limit Uplink Set the rate limit from the wireless client to the network when using Radius
authentication. A rate limit of 0 disables rate limiting for this direction. Any rate
(0,100-100000)
limit obtained through radius server authentication overwrites the initial user rate
limit for the given Client.
Rate Limit Downlink Set the rate limit from the network to the wireless client when using Radius
authentication. Any rate limit obtained through radius server authentication
(0,100-100000)
overwrites the initial user rate limit for the given Client.
Available WLANs
Use the Available WLANs Add -> and Remove <- functions to move WLANs for this
new group from the available list to the configured list. Once on the configured list
(and the changes applied), the members of this group can interoperate with the
controller on these WLANs (once authenticated by the local Radius server).
Configured WLANs
The Configured WLANs columns displays the WLANs this new group can operate
within (once users are configured). Use the Add -> and Remove <- functions to
move WLANs from the available list to the configured list.
Time of access in days Select the checkboxes corresponding to the days of the week you would like this
new group to have access to the controller managed network. Of course, the user
base within the group still needs to be authenticated by the local Radius server
first.
NOTE
Rate limiting parameters need to be part of Radius Access Accept packets. If any radius server
doesn't send rate limit parameters in Radius Access Accept packet, these parameters will not
be configured.
displays error messages if something goes wrong in the transaction between the applet and
the controller.
