Psion Teklogix 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway User Manual 65
Chapter 7: Managing User Accounts
Overview
7.1 Overview
The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway includes user management capabilities for control-
ling client access to access points.
User management and authentication must always be used in conjunction with the
following two security modes, which require use of a RADIUS server for user
authentication and management.
• IEEE 802.1x mode (see “IEEE 802.1x” on page 107 in Chapter 10: “Con-
figuring Security”).
• WPA with RADIUS mode (see “WPA Enterprise” on page 112 in Chapter
10: “Configuring Security”).
You have the option of using either the internal RADIUS server embedded in the
9160 G2 Wireless Gateway or an external RADIUS server that you provide. If you
use the embedded RADIUS server, use the Administration Web page on the access
point to set up and manage user accounts. If you are using an external RADIUS
server, you will need to set up and manage user accounts on the Administrative
interface for that server.
On the User Management page, you can create, edit, remove, and view client user
accounts. Each user account consists of a user name and password. The set of users
specified here represent approved clients that can log in and use one or more access
points to access local, and possibly external, networks via your wireless network.
Note: Users specified here are clients of the access point(s) who use the APs as a
connectivity hub, not administrators of the wireless network. Only those
with the administrator username and password and knowledge of the
administration URL can log in as an administrator and view or modify con-
figuration settings.
