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.

Enable RADIUS
Accounting

Click Enable RADIUS Accounting if you want to enforce authentication for WPA client stations with
user names and passwords for each station. See also Chapter 7: “Managing User Accounts”.
