MAC Access Control By Means of RADIUS Authentication

If you want to control wireless access to the network and if your network includes a RADIUS
Server, you can store the list of MAC addresses on the RADIUS server rather than configure
each AP individually. You can define a RADIUS Profile that specifies the IP Address of the
server that contains a central list of MAC Address values identifying the authorized stations that
may access the wireless network. You must specify information for at least the primary RADIUS
server. The back-up RADIUS server is optional.
Note:
Each VLAN can be configured to use a separate RADIUS server (and backup
Note:
server) for MAC authentication. MAC access control can be separately enabled
for each VLAN.
Note:
Contact your RADIUS server manufacturer if you have problems configuring the
Note:
server or have problems using RADIUS authentication.

802.1x Authentication using RADIUS

You must configure a primary EAP/802.1x Authentication server to use 802.1x security. A
back-up server is optional.
Note:
Each VLAN can be configured to use a separate RADIUS server (and backup
Note:
server) for 802.1x authentication. 802.1x authentication ("EAP authentication")
can be separately enabled for each VLAN.
Description
Enter the maximum time, in seconds, that the AP should wait for
the RADIUS server to respond to a request. The range is 1-10
seconds; the default is 3 seconds.
Enter the maximum number of times an authentication request
may be transmitted. The range is 0 to 4, the default is 3.
Select Enable from the drop-down box to enable the RADIUS
Server Profile.
