6.14.2 Configuring LDAP Authentication
When the Radius Data Source is set to use an external LDAP server (see Configuring the Radius
Server on page 6-62), the
LDAP screen is used to configure the properties of the external LDAP server.
To configure the LDAP server:
1. Select
System Configuration -> User Authentication -> RADIUS Server -> LDAP from
the AP-5131 menu tree.
Subnet/Host Defines the IP address of the subnet or host that will be
authenticating with the Radius server. If a WLAN has been created
to support mesh networking, then enter the IP address of mesh
client bridge in order for the MU to authenticate with a base bridge.
Netmask Defines the netmask (subnet mask) of the subnet or host
authenticating with the Radius server.
Shared Secret Click the Passwords button and set a shared secret used for each
host or subnet authenticating against the RADIUS server. The
shared secret can be up to 7 characters in length.
NOTE The LDAP screen displays with unfamiliar alphanumeric characters (if new
to LDAP configuration). Symbol recommends only qualified administrators
change the default values displayed within the LDAP screen.
