Configuring Radius Settings - SMC Networks EliteConnect SMCWHSG44-G User Manual

1.8.6.5 Configuring RADIUS Settings

The RADIUS client on the SMCWHSG44-G works in conjunction with the Web
redirection component and IEEE 802.1x component for wireless user authen-
tication. The Web redirection and IEEE 802.1x components are responsible
for acquiring user credential information, and the RADIUS client communi-
cates with a back-end RADIUS server using the user credential information.
Go to the AAA\RADIUS section (see section 2.6.2), and then configure the
RADIUS settings. You have to configure at least Authentication method,
Primary RADIUS server, Shared key, and Identifier of the NAS settings.
Leave other settings to their default values. Click Save & Restart when finished.
Fig. 27. RADIUS Settings.
NOTE: When configured for EAP authentication, the RADIUS server supports
either EAP-TLS or EAP-MD5, but not both at the same time. As a result, not
all combinations of EAP-MD5, EAP-TLS, PAP and CHAP authentication
methods are available if both IEEE 802.1x and Web redirection are enabled.
The following table shows the allowable IEEE 802.1x and Web redirection
authentication modes on the Wireless Advanced edition of Wireless Hotspot
Gateway.
