DESCRIPTION
Enable this feature to have the ZyXEL device use an external authentication
server in performing user authentication.
Disable this feature if you will not use an external authentication server. If you
disable this feature, you can still set the ZyXEL device to perform user
authentication using the local user database.
Enter the IP address of the external authentication server in dotted decimal
notation.
The default port of the RADIUS server for authentication is 1812.
You need not change this value unless your network administrator instructs
you to do so with additional information.
Enter a password (up to 31 alphanumeric characters) as the key to be shared
between the external authentication server and the access points.
The key is not sent over the network. This key must be the same on the
external authentication server and ZyXEL device.
