Use internal
radius server
You can choose whether to use the built-in authentication server provided with the 9160 G2 Wireless
Gateway, or you can use an external radius server.
To use the authentication server provided with the 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway, ensure the
checkbox beside the Use internal radius server field is selected. If this option is selected, you
do not have to provide the Radius IP and Radius Key; they are automatically provided. If the
option for the internal RADIUS server is enabled, configure user accounts on the AP via the
Cluster > User Management tab. For more information, see Chapter 7: “Managing User
Accounts”.
To use an external authentication server, ensue the checkbox beside the Use internal
radius server field is deselected. If you deselect this checkbox you must supply a Radius
IP and Radius Key of the server you want to use.
Note: The RADIUS server is identified by its IP address and UDP port numbers for the dif-
ferent services it provides. On the current release of the 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway,
the RADIUS server User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports used by the access point
are not configurable. (The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway is hard-coded to use RADIUS
server UDP port 1812 for authentication and port 1813 for accounting.)
Radius IP
Enter the Radius IP in the text box. The Radius IP is the IP address of the
RADIUS
server.
(The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway internal authentication server is
127.0.0.1
.)
For information on setting up user accounts, see Chapter 7: “Managing User Accounts”.
Radius Key
Enter the Radius Key in the text box.
The Radius Key is the shared secret key for the RADIUS server. The text you enter will be displayed as
“ * ” characters to prevent others from seeing the RADIUS key as you type.
(The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway internal authentication server key is
secret
.)
This value is never sent over the network.
