Configure The Hotspot To Use Radius Shared Password Authentication - Digi LR54 User Manual

Hotspot
Configure the hotspot to use RADIUS shared password
authentication
RADIUS shared password authentication requires each user to enter a password. This password is
validated by an external RADIUS server, and the password is the same for all users.
Create a user on the RADIUS server with the username guest. The password assigned at the RADIUS
server for the user guest is the shared password that your hotspot users should enter to authenticate
to the hotspot via the RADIUS server.
By default, the router redirects unauthenticated users to the HTML authentication page located on the
router at etc/config/hotspot/password.html. You can customize the authentication page as needed,
or host an authentication page on a remote server. See
information.
