Note:

If you choose to configure RADIUS MAC authentication together with 802.1X, the
RADIUS MAC address authentication occurs prior to 802.1X authentication. Only
when RADIUS MAC authentication succeeds is 802.1X authentication performed.
When RADIUS MAC authentication fails, 802.1X authentication is not performed.

Enabling the VAPs

Before enabling the Virtual Access Point (VAP) radio interfaces, first configure all of
the relevant raido settings (see “You must first enable VAP interface 0 before the
other interfaces can be enabled.” on page 6-48.
)

After you have configured the radio settings, select Security under Radio G, set an
SSID to identify the wireless network service provided by each VAP you want to use,
and then click Apply to save your settings.
