Setting up a MAC Address Access List 31
If you click Undo, all password fields are cleared and you may type another
password.
Setting up a MAC
Address Access List
The MAC address access list is only required if you use the Access Point Local MAC
Authentication/Encryption security setting. Up to 1000 client MAC addresses can
be stored in this list. If a client’s MAC address is not on the list, that client cannot
associate with the access point.
■ Adding MAC addresses—You must supply a MAC address for each client.
■ Deleting MAC addresses—To delete MAC addresses, check the boxes next to
the addresses you want to delete and click Delete. If you click Reset, all
checked boxes are cleared and you may reselect which users to delete from
the list.
Defining RADIUS
Servers
The RADIUS Server Setup page lets you define the servers to be used for RADIUS
authentication and accounting functions. These include RADIUS authentication
servers, dynamic key exchange servers, and accounting servers. If you enter an
invalid IP address for any of the servers, an error message is displayed. Once an
accounting server is set up, you can turn accounting on or off from this page. If
the servers are set up and accounting is turned off, the settings remain saved.
To set up the servers, you will need to specify a valid IP address as well as the port
and shared secret for the primary and secondary servers your network uses for
authentication, dynamic key exchange, and accounting. Secondary servers are
optional. The authentication scheme implemented at your site determines which
servers you must set up:
■ If you are using EAP-MD5, you must set up the RADIUS authentication server
information.
■ If you are using EAP-TLS, you must set up the dynamic key exchange server
information.
■ If you are using Serial Authentication, you must set up both the RADIUS
authentication server and the dynamic key exchange server.
Configuration of the RADIUS accounting server is optional.
Configuring for SNMP
Management
The SNMP Management page lets you set up the configuration for using the
access point in conjunction with third-party SNMP management programs. From
this page, you can:
■ Modify the Read Only (default “public”) or Read/Write (default “private”)
community names. Activation of either Modify button displays the
corresponding page where the community names can be set.
■ Identify one or two host machines to receive SNMP traps.
■ Identify which traps to send to the trap host or hosts.
Defining a TFTP Server A TFTP server must be set up in order to perform firmware updates, backups, and
restores. The TFTP Setup page identifies the TFTP server that will be used. If you do
