RADIUS Server
Cisco Small Business WAP551 and WAP561 Wireless-N Access Point 106

STEP 1 Select System Security > RADIUS Server in the navigation pane.
STEP 2 Enter the parameters:
• Server IP Address Type—The IP version that the RADIUS server uses.
You can toggle between the address types to configure IPv4 and IPv6 global
RADIUS address settings, but the WAP device contacts only the RADIUS
server or servers of the address type you select in this field.
• Server IP Address 1 or Server IPv6 Address 1—The addresses for the
primary global RADIUS server.
When the first wireless client tries to authenticate with the WAP device, the
device sends an authentication request to the primary server. If the primary
server responds to the authentication request, the WAP device continues to
use this RADIUS server as the primary server, and authentication requests
are sent to the address specified.
• Server IP Address (2 through 4) or Server IPv6 Address (2 through 4)—
Up to three backup IPv4 or IPv6 RADIUS server addresses.
If authentication fails with the primary server, each configured backup server
is tried in sequence.
• Key 1—The shared secret key that the WAP device uses to authenticate to
the primary RADIUS server.
You can use from 1 to 64 standard alphanumeric and special characters. The
key is case sensitive and must match the key configured on the RADIUS
server. The text you enter appears as asterisks.
• Key (2 through 4)—The RADIUS key associated with the configured backup
RADIUS servers. The server at Server IP (IPv6) Address 2 uses Key 2, the
server at Server IP (IPv6) Address-3 uses Key 3, and so on.
• Enable RADIUS Accounting—Enables tracking and measuring of the
resources a particular user has consumed, such as system time, amount of
data transmitted and received, and so on.
If you enable RADIUS accounting, it is enabled for the primary RADIUS
server and all backup servers.
STEP 3 Click Save. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.
