NAI Realm List
An Network Access Identifier (NAI) Realm profile identifies and describes a NAI realm to which the clients can
connect. The NAI realm settings on a W-IAP act as an advertisement profile to determine the NAI realm
elements that must be included as part of a GAS Response frame.
Configuring Hotspot Profiles
To configure a hotspot profile, perform the following steps:
1. Create the required ANQP and H2QP advertisement profiles.
2. Create a hotspot profile.
3. Associate the required ANQP and H2QP advertisement profiles created in step 1 to the hotspot profile
created in step 2.
4. Create an SSID Profile with enterprise security and WPA-2 encryption settings and then associate the SSID
with the hotspot profile created in step 2.
Creating Advertisement Profiles for Hotspot Configuration
A hotspot profile contains one or several advertisement profiles. The following advertisement profiles can be
configured through the Instant CLI:
l ANQP advertisement profiles
n NAI Realm profile
n Venue Name Profile
n Network Authentication Profile
n Roaming Consortium Profile
n 3GPP Profile
n IP Address availability Profile
n Domain Name Profile
l H2QP advertisement profiles
n Operator Friendly Name Profile
n Connection Capability Profile
n Operating-Class Profile
n WAN-Metrics Profile
Configuring an NAI Realm Profile
You can configure a Network Access Identifier (NAI) Realm profile to define the NAI realm information, which
can be sent as an ANQP IE in a GAS query response.
To configure a NAI profile:
(Instant AP)(config)# hotspot anqp-nai-realm-profile <name>
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# nai-realm-name <name>
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# nai-realm-encoding {<utf8>|<rfc4282>}
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# nai-realm-eap-method <eap-method>
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# nai-realm-auth-id-1 <authentication-ID>
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# nai-realm-auth-id-2 <authentication-ID>
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# nai-realm-auth-value-1 <authentication-value>
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# nai-realm-auth-value-2 <authentication-value>
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# nai-home-realm
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# enable
(Instant AP)(nai-realm <name>)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
