3. First identify the default RADIUS service profile. Note that you must first configure a RADIUS service profile on
the Public Space > AAA > Profile tab.
4. Place a check mark in the AAA Radius box to enable the feature.
5. The AP can reauthenticate repeat subscribers who return to the system without 720 hours. To enable this
feature place a check mark in the Enable Automatic Subscriber Reauthentication box.
6. Select the RADIUS Username Type. When using the AP-2500, you can authenticate subscribers using the
following credentials:
• UserInput (that is, User Name and Password)
• MAC-MAC (Enter the MAC address as both the user name and the password)
• MAC-Key (Enter the MAC address as the user name and the AP/RADIUS Shared Secret as the
password)
If using MAC-MAC or MAC-Key, enter the MAC address in the following format: 123456-7890ab (6 digits, a
dash, final 6 digits).
7. Place a check mark in the Radius Idle Timeout box to have the AP time out users who are inactive for the
specified number of seconds.
— The AP only uses this parameter if the Idle-Timeout attribute is not set or if the attribute specifies an
amount of time that is greater than this setting. See
details.
— When set to 0, a user never times out (assuming that the Idle-Timeout attribute is not set).
8. Place a check mark in the Send NAS Identifier box if you want to include the AP's NAS Identifier in the
messages sent to the RADIUS server.
9. Configure the RADIUS NAS ID if you enabled Send NAS Identifier. (In RADIUS terminology, the AP is the
NAS or Network Access Server.)
