Overview
The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway includes user management capabilities for controlling client
access to access points.
User management and authentication must always be used in conjunction with the following
two security modes, which require use of a RADIUS server for user authentication and
management.
•
IEEE 802.1x mode (see "IEEE 802.1x" on page 108 in Chapter 10: "Configuring
Security").
•
WPA with RADIUS mode (see "WPA Enterprise" on page 113 in Chapter 10: "Config-
uring Security").
You have the option of using either the internal RADIUS server embedded in the 9160 G2
Wireless Gateway or an external RADIUS server that you provide. If you use the embedded
RADIUS server, use the Administration Web page on the access point to set up and manage
user accounts. If you are using an external RADIUS server, you will need to set up and
manage user accounts on the Administrative interface for that server.
On the User Management page, you can create, edit, remove, and view client user accounts.
Each user account consists of a user name and password. The set of users specified here rep-
resent approved clients that can log in and use one or more access points to access local, and
possibly external, networks via your wireless network.
Note: Users specified here are clients of the access point(s) who use the APs as a connectiv-
ity hub, not administrators of the wireless network. Only those with the administrator
username and password and knowledge of the administration URL can log in as an
administrator and view or modify configuration settings.
