Chapter 4 Security Setup

Setting Up EAP Authentication

Note Draft standard 8 is the default setting in firmware version 11.05 and

earlier, and it might remain in effect when you upgrade the firmware to

version 11.06 or later. Check the setting on the Authenticator

Configuration page in the management system to make sure the best draft

standard for your network is selected.

Step 3 Enter the name or IP address of the RADIUS server in the Server Name/IP entry

field.

Step 4 Enter the port number your RADIUS server uses for authentication. The default

setting, 1812, is the port setting for Cisco’s RADIUS server, the Cisco Secure

Access Control Server (ACS), and for many other RADIUS servers. Check your

server’s product documentation to find the correct port setting.

Step 5 Enter the shared secret used by your RADIUS server in the Shared Secret entry

field. The shared secret on the access point must match the shared secret on the

RADIUS server. The shared secret can contain up to 64 alphanumeric characters.
