RADIUS Servers

WPA2-Enterprise requires an authentication server for issuing client certificates for the wireless authentication. Cloudpath provides an onboard RADIUS server, supports integration with your existing RADIUS server, or integration with a Microsoft Network Policy Server acting as a RADIUS server.

For all configurations:

• The wireless controller requires the port number and shared secret from the RADIUS server.
  Note: If using the onboard RADIUS server, the shared secret and port number can be found on the Administration > System Services > RADIUS component page.
• Apply the RADIUS authentication server to the secure SSID.
• Populate the client database for an external authentication server with the IP address and shared secret for each access point and the user data with usernames and passwords for each end- user.
