6.14.3 Configuring a Proxy Radius Server

The access point has the capability to proxy authentication requests to a remote Radius server based
on the suffix of the user ID (such as myisp.com or company.com). The access point supports up to 10
proxy servers.

To configure the proxy Radius server for the access point:

1.

Select

System Configuration

->

User Authentication

->

RADIUS Server

->

Proxy

from

the menu tree.

CAUTION If using a proxy server for Radius authentication, the

Data Source

field within the Radius server screen must be set to

Local

. If set to

LDAP, the proxy server will not be successful when performing the
authentication. To verify the existing settings, see

Configuring the

Radius Server on page 6-64

.

CAUTION When configuring the credentials of an MU, ensure its login (or user)

name is a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), or it cannot be
authenticated by the access point’s proxy server. For example;
[email protected].
