RADIUS Configuration Parameters

You can configure the AP to communicate with up to four different RADIUS servers:
• Primary Authentication Server
• Back-up Authentication Server
• Primary Accounting Server
• Back-up Accounting Server
NOTE: You must configure the settings for at least one Authentication server before configuring the settings for an
Accounting server.
The back-up servers are optional, but when configured, the AP will communicate with the back-up server if the primary
server is off-line. You can configure the same server to perform both Authentication and Accounting services.
There are two screens where you configure RADIUS parameters:
• You can enable and configure basic RADIUS parameters from the AP's Configure > Public Space > AAA > AAA
RADIUS screen. A RADIUS service profile must first be configured on the Profile tab and entered in the RADIUS
Default Profile field before enabling Radius.
• You can configure RADIUS service profiles on the Configure > Public Space > AAA > Profile screen. A service
profile defines a certain RADIUS configuration.
If you are using RADIUS with Internal Authentication, see
information and step-by-step configuration instructions.
