Appendix A – Public Access RADIUS configuration
As mentioned in the Public Access section of the HP ProCurve configuration guide, all the
Attributes required to drive the Guest access user experience can be centrally administered
from a RADIUS server.
In this case we will use the amigopod RADIUS technology to manage the Public Access
configuration and will be implemented using amigopod User Roles.
As with all amigopod deployments, User Roles can be configured to implement a wireless policy
for each user once they have been authenticated. These roles definitions can be made up of
both Standard RADIUS attributes as per RFC 2865 and also Vendor Specific Attributes (VSA)
that enable vendors such as HP ProCurve to extend their functionality and apply policies based
on their value-add features.
Amigopod has an extensive RADIUS dictionary of vendors and includes the full list of supported
VSAs from HP ProCurve / Colubris. For more details on the definition and use of the Colubris
VSA attributes please refer to the latest HP ProCurve Network Access Guide.
In order to setup up this centrally controlled RADIUS configuration of the Public Access
interface there are two steps within the amigopod configuration that need to be addressed:
Create a User Role with the desired Colubris VSAs
•
Define a user that will be used by the MSM to retrieve the Public Access configuration
•
CONFIDENTIAL
