Use RADIUS Authentication
Checking the Use RADIUS Authentication box allows you to use the user information (user
name, password, IP address, etc.) stored on a separate RADIUS server on the network.
Note: A RADIUS Server (Remote Authentication Dial-In Service) is an accounting and
authentication system used by many large companies and Internet Service Providers
(ISPs). After a client dials in to the network and enters their user name and password, the
information is passed to a RADIUS server. The RADIUS server checks the accuracy of the
information, and then allows access to the system.
1. Check the
Use RADIUS Authentication box and then click the RADIUS Setup button.
The RADIUS Configuration screen displays.
2. Select the
Main RADIUS Server or Backup RADIUS Server from the drop-down list
box.
3. Enter the RADIUS Server IP Address. In most cases, the RADIUS Access Server and
the RADIUS Accounting Server are the same device. If this is true for your
configuration, enter the same IP address in both fields.
4. Enter your
Secret RADIUS code or password and then re-enter it to confirm.
5. Click
OK when complete.
