Specify the IP address or hostname of the RADIUS authentication server.
Define or edit the port on which the RADIUS server listens to traffic within the access
point managed network. The port range is 1 - 65,535. The default port is 1813.
Select the type of AAA server as either Host, onboard-self or onboard-controller.
Specify the secret (password) used for authentication on the selected RADIUS server. By
default the secret is displayed as asterisks.
Select the method of proxy that browsers communicate with the RADIUS authentication
server. The mode could either be None, Through Wireless Controller or Through RF
Domain Manager.
Specify a 64 character maximum hostname or the Mint ID of the Mint device used for
proxying requests.
Displays the number of attempts a client can retransmit a missed frame to the RADIUS
server before it times out of the authentication session. The available range is from 1 - 10.
The default is 3.
Specify the time for the access point's re-transmission of request packets. The default is
5 seconds. If this time is exceeded, the authentication session is terminated.
Specify the interval, in seconds, between two successive re-transmission attempts of
request packets. Specify a value from 50 - 200 seconds. The default is 100 seconds.
Displays the DSCP value as a 6-bit parameter in the header of every IP packet used for
packet classification. The valid range is from 0 - 63 with a default value of 34.
Displays NAI routing status. AAA servers identify clients using the NAI. The NAI is a
character string in the format of an E-mail address as either user or user@ but it need not
be a valid E-mail address or a fully qualified domain name. NAI can be used either in a
specific or generic form. The specific form, which must contain the user portion and may
contain the @ portion, identifies a single user. Each user still needs a unique security
association, but these associations can be stored on a AAA server. The original purpose
of NAI was to support roaming between dialup ISPs. Using NAI, each ISP need not have
all the accounts for all of its roaming partners in a single RADIUS database. RADIUS
servers can proxy requests to remote servers for each.
Enter the realm name. The name cannot exceed 64 characters. When the access point's
RADIUS server receives a request for a user name, the server references a table of user
names. If the user name is known, the server proxies the request to the RADIUS server.
Specify the realm as either Prefix or Suffix.
Select this option to remove information from the packet when NAI routing is enabled.
