Viewing and
Configuring AAA
Support for
Third-Party AP
Users
A WX switch can provide network access for users associated with a
third-party AP that has authenticated the users with RADIUS. You can
connect a third-party AP to a WX switch and configure the WX to provide
authorization for clients who authenticate and access the network
through the AP.
Configure a proxy access rule for the AP’s users.
Add a RADIUS proxy entry for the AP. The proxy entry specifies the IP
address of the AP and the UDP ports on which the WX switch listens
for RADIUS access-requests and stop-accounting records from the AP.
Specify the WX port connected to the third-party AP.
For information about configuration requirements on the third-party AP,
see the “Configuring AAA for Users of Third-Party APs” section in the
“Configuring AAA for Network Users” chapter of the Wireless LAN
Switch and Controller Configuration Guide.
