The following topologies illustrate potential deployments.
Page 18: Multi-Site Installation
• A single CN3000 is installed along with one or more CN300/CN320 satellites at sites #1 and #3. • At site #2, the CN3000 provides a wireless network and is also connected to a LAN to enable a number of wired computers to act as public access stations.
Page 19: Multi-Area Installation
• A single CN3000 is installed along with one or more CN300/CN320 satellites at areas #1 and #3. • At area #2, the CN3000 provides a wireless network and is also connected to a LAN to enable a number of wired computers to act as public access stations.
Page 20: The Public Access Interface
The public access interface is automatically activated when a customer attempts to browse to a resource on the protected network after establishing a wireless link with the CN3000. Initially, the customer will see the Login page. For example, this is the default login page:...
Page 21: Customizing The Public Access Interface
For a complete description of the other pages that make up the public access interface Chapter 6. Customizing the The CN3000 ships with a default set of pages for the public access interface. You can customize these pages to meet the needs of your installation. A web or ftp server is public access required to host any pages that you customize.
Page 22: Connecting Customers
This feature enables wireless client stations that are using a static IP address to connect to the CN3000. The client station’s IP address does not have to be on the same subnet as the CN3000. This permits customers to access the wireless network without reconfiguring their networking settings.
Page 23: Email Redirection
• must be using the same proxy server address and port number for both HTTP and HTTPS. • not be using 802.1x. The CN3000 supports a maximum of 100 client station connections. Up to 50 of these connections can use proxy support at the same time. Email The CN3000 is able to provide SMTP email service on a per-customer basis.
Page 24: Customer Authentication
The CN3000 enables you to create local accounts that bypass RADIUS authentication. To login, customers use the public access interface, but instead of using the RADIUS server, authentication is handled directly by the CN3000. These accounts are useful for system administrators and management personnel.

Starting the 1. Start your Web browser.
Page 28: Security
Important: Make sure that the RADIUS profile you select is configured and that the administrator account is defined on a functioning RADIUS server. If not, you will not be able to log back into the CN3000 because the administrator password cannot be authenticated.
Page 29 Secure remote management is possible using the integrated PPTP and IPSec client software. This enables the CN3000 to create a secure tunnel to a remote server using a public network (Internet). This can also be used to secure automatic configuration updates and communications with a remote RADIUS server or Web server.

Page 31: Virtual Access Points
• To define a new profile, open the Wireless > WLAN profiles page. See page details. Maximum The total number of wireless client stations that can be connected to the CN3000 at any given time is 255, with a maximum of 50 client stations taking advantage of any active wireless client wireless VPN security option (IPSec, PPTP, L2TP).
Page 32: Performance Degradation And Channel Separation
The set of available channels is automatically determined by the CN3000 based on the Country setting you define on the Wi-Fi page, which means that the number of non- overlapping channels available to you will also vary.

To make the adjustment, open the Wi-Fi > Wireless page. For most installations, the large setting should be used. However, if you are installing...
Page 35: Building Multi-Cell Wireless Networks
Configure all CN3000s with the same network name (SSID). Internet connection Only one CN3000 can be connected to the Internet in this configuration. This also means that if a VPN connection is required to a remote server, this CN3000 must also make the connection. Security To properly support roaming, all CN3000s must be configured with the same security features and settings, or no security (not recommended).

The CN3000 will automatically scan to find all active site survey access points. For example: Note: If an access point is not broadcasting its name, the SSID is blank.
Page 37: Address Allocation
CN3000 has the host name wireless.colubris.com. You do not have to add this name to your DNS server for it to be resolved. The CN3000 intercepts all DNS requests it receives on the wireless or LAN ports. It resolves any request that matches the certificate host name by returning the IP address assigned to the wireless port.
Page 38: Connecting To A Wired Lan
CN300 Setting the LAN port address The CN3000 connects to the wired LAN via its LAN port. You must assign a static IP address to this port because the CN3000 cannot function as a DHCP client on its LAN port.

If you already have a DCHP server operating on the wired LAN, you should disable it and use the one on the CN3000.
Page 40: The Radius Server
• The default address for the mail server used to support SMTP redirection. When you set up a profile for the CN3000 on the RADIUS server you define this information in the form of a Colubris Networks vendor-specific attribute. For a complete list of all supported values see page 150.
Page 41: More Information
For backup redundancy, each CN3000 RADIUS profile supports a primary and secondary server. The CN3000 will function with any RADIUS server that supports RFC 2865 and RFC 2866. Authentication occurs via EAP-MD5, CHAP, MSCHAP v1/v2, or PAP. Important: To safeguard the integrity of the RADIUS traffic, it is important that you protect communications between the CN3000 and the RADIUS server.
Page 42: Firewall
However, if necessary, you can create a completely custom set of firewall rules to suite your particular networking requirements. If the CN3000 is connected to a wired LAN, the firewall protects the wired LAN as well. Integrated Firewall...

Chapter 5: Activating the public access interface Chapter 5 Activating the public access interface This chapter explains how to configure and start the public access interface.
Page 96: Overview
The public access interface is the sequence of web pages that customers use to login, logout, and view the status of their wireless sessions. The CN3000 ships with a default interface which you can customize to meet the needs of your installation. However, before you do this you should initialize the default setup and test it with your network.

Each profile defines the settings for a RADIUS client connection. To support a client connection, you must create a client account (sometimes called a RAS account) on the RADIUS server.
Page 98: Profile Name
Controls the retry interval (in seconds) for access and accounting requests that time- out. If no reply is received within this interval, the CN3000 switches between the primary and secondary RADIUS servers (if defined). If a reply is received after the interval expires, it is ignored.
Page 99: Primary Radius Server
For 802.1x users, the authentication method is always determined by the 802.1x client software and is not controlled by this setting. If traffic between the CN3000 and the RADIUS server is not protected by a VPN, it is recommended that you use either EAP-MD5 or MSCHAP V2, if supported by your RADIUS Server.

Page 123: How It Works
Although the remote login page feature enables you to host the public access login page on a remote web server, authentication of customers is still performed by the CN3000 via a RADIUS server. To accomplish this, the remote web server must send customer login information back to the CN3000.
Page 124: Example
4. Customize login.html to accept username and password information from customers and then send it to the CN3000.

Set the following standard RADIUS attributes to assign VLAN numbers on a per- customer basis. Note: The CN3000 does not directly support VLANs. VLAN support is available when using CN300/CN320s as satellite stations only. And only for customers using 802.1x/ WPA.
Page 172: Creating Administrator Profiles On The Radius Server
Creating administrator profiles on the RADIUS server If you want to support multiple administrator names and passwords, you must use a RADIUS server to manage them. The CN3000 only supports a single admin name and password internally. Important: Improper configuration of the administrator profile could expose the CN3000 to access by any customer with a valid account.
Page 173: Noc Authentication
Chapter 8: NOC authentication Chapter 8 NOC authentication This chapter explains how to use a remote login page and NOC authentication.
Page 174: Main Benefits
• Customers can login to the public access interface without exposing their web browsers to the SSL certificate on the CN3000. This eliminates warning messages caused by having an SSL certificate on the CN3000 that is not signed by a well-known certificate authority.

Page 177: How It Works
The NOC authentication feature provides a secure way of authenticating public access customers, with strong mutual authentication between the login application on the web server hosting the remote login page and the CN3000 used for authenticating customer logins. This occurs via the two Colubris-AVPair value strings (ssl-noc-certificate and ssl-noc-ca-certificate), which define the locations of two certificates.
Page 178: Addressing Security Concerns
CA. Additional security is provided via the NOC authentication list on the CN3000 (page 247). You use this list to define the set of remote IP addresses that the CN3000 will authentication accept authentication requests from.
Page 179: Setting Up The Certificates
The SSL certificate will be used by the login application to secure communications with the CN3000. Define attributes Add the following two attributes to the RADIUS profile for the CN3000 so that it can retrieve the SSL and CA certificates from the web server: ssl-noc-certificate= URL_of_the_Certificate Certificate issued to the application on the web server that will send customer info to the CN3000 for authentication.

CN3000 is responsible for assigning IP addresses to computers on the wireless network. If you connect the CN3000 to a wired LAN, the CN3000 will also assign addresses to computers on the wired LAN as well. However, for this to function properly, no other DHCP server must be operating on the wired LAN.
Page 234: Dhcp Server
Addresses The CN3000 provides its own IP address as the DNS server address. The CN3000 acts as a DNS relay and redirects all DNS requests to the DNS servers specified on the DNS/WINS page. If a WINS server is defined on the DNS/WINS page, its address is provided to DHCP clients as well.

• If outgoing traffic arrives at the port at a rate that is greater than the defined bandwidth limit, it causes the CN3000 to throttle the traffic for that port. If the traffic rate is over- limit for just a short burst, the data will be queued and forwarded without loss. If the traffic rate is over-limit for a sustained period, the CN3000 will drop data to bring the rate down to the bandwidth limit that is set.

CN3000. To validate customer logins, a login application on the remote server must collect customer login information and send it to the CN3000, which in turn forwards it to a RADIUS server.
Page 250: Radius Profiles List
CN3000. For backup redundancy, each profile supports a primary and secondary server. The CN3000 will function with any RADIUS server that supports RFC 2865 and RFC 2866. Authentication occurs via EAP-MD5, CHAP, MSCHAP v1/v2, or PAP. To edit a profile, click on its name.

Controls the retry interval (in seconds) for access and accounting requests that time- out. If no reply is received within this interval, the CN3000 switches between the primary and secondary RADIUS servers (if defined). If a reply is received after the interval expires, it is ignored.
Page 252: Primary Radius Server
For 802.1x users, the authentication method is always determined by the 802.1x client software and is not controlled by this setting. If traffic between the CN3000 and the RADIUS server is not protected by a VPN, it is recommended that you use either EAP-MD5 or MSCHAP V2, if supported by your RADIUS Server.
