17.3.2 Configuring RADIUS Support

To configure RADIUS support on the MG 3200 via the Embedded
Web Server, take these 7 steps:
1.
In the Embedded Web Server, from the Advanced Configuration screen, select the
Network Settings from the sub-menu bar on the top (Refer to ''Network Settings'' on
page 154).
2.
Locate the RADIUS settings section.
3.
Fill in the RADIUS server IP address, port number and shared secret.
4.
Set Enable RADIUS access control to Enable.
5.
Set Use RADIUS for Web/Telnet login to Enable.
6.
Set Require secure Web connection (HTTPS) to Enable (HTTPS Only).
It is important that you use HTTPS (secure Web server) if connecting to the device
over an open network, since the password must be transmitted in clear text over the
network. Similarly, if using Telnet, make sure you use SSL mode
(TELNETSERVERENABLE=2).
7.
Save the configuration and restart the device. When you connect to the Web server or
Telnet interface, use the name and password configured in the RADIUS database.
The old system password is still active, and may be used if the RADIUS server is
down.
To configure RADIUS support on the MG 3200 using the ini file,
take these 3 steps:
1.
Open the ini file in any text editor.
2.
Add the following lines to the ini file:
ENABLERADIUS = 1
WEBRADIUSLOGIN = 1
RADIUSAuthServerIP = IP address of RADIUS server
RADIUSAuthPort = port number of RADIUS server, usually 1812
SHAREDSECRET = 'your shared secret'
HTTPSONLY = 1
3.
Save the configuration and restart the device. When you connect to the Telnet
interface, use the name and password configured in the RADIUS database. The old
system password is still active, and may be used if the RADIUS server is down.
