After completing the above-mentioned configuration steps, you can authenticate the SSID users against the
configured dynamic RADIUSproxy parameters.
Enabling Dynamic RADIUS Proxy
You can enable RADIUS Server Support using the Instant UI or CLI.
In the Instant UI
To enable RADIUS server support:
1. In the Instant main window, click the System link. The System window is displayed.
2. In the General tab of System window, select Enabled from the Dynamic RADIUS Proxy drop-down list.
3. Click OK.
When dynamic RADIUS proxy is enabled, ensure that a static Virtual Controller IP is configured. For more
information on configuring Virtual Controller IP address, see Configuring Virtual Controller IP Address on page 76.
When dynamic RADIUS proxy is enabled, the Virtual Controller network uses the IP Address of the Virtual
Controller for communication with external RADIUS servers. Ensure that the Virtual Controller IP Address is set as
a NAS IP when configuring RADIUS server attributes with dynamic RADIUS proxy enabled. For more information
on configuring RADIUS server attributes, see Configuring an External Server for Authentication on page 158.
In the CLI
To enable the dynamic RADIUS proxy feature:
(Instant AP)(config)# dynamic-radius-proxy
(Instant AP)(config)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
Configuring Dynamic RADIUS Proxy Parameters for Authentication Servers
You can configure DRP parameters for the authentication server by using the Instant UI or CLI.
In the Instant UI
1. Click the Security>Authentication Servers.
2. To create a new server, click New and configure the required RADIUSserver parameters as described in Table
32.
3. Ensure that the following dynamic RADIUS proxy parameters are configured:
l DRP IP— IP address to be used as source IP for RADIUS packets
l DRP Mask—Subnet mask of the DRP IP address.
l DRP VLAN—VLAN in which the RADIUS packets are sent.
l DRP Gateway—Gateway IP address of the DRP VLAN.
4. Click OK.
In the CLI
To configure dynamic RADIUS proxy parameters:
(Instant AP)(config)# wlan auth-server <profile-name>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# ip <IP-address>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# key <key>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# port <port>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# acctport <port>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# nas-id <NAS-ID>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# nas-ip <NAS-IP-address>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# timeout <seconds>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# retry-count <number>
