(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>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# deadtime <minutes>
(Instant AP)(Auth Server <profile-name>)# drp-ip <IP-address> <mask> vlan <vlan> gateway

Associate Server Profiles to a Network Profile
To associate the authentication server profiles with a network profile:
1. Access the WLAN wizard or Wired Settings window.
l To open the WLAN wizard, select an existing SSID on the Network tab, and click edit.
l To open the wired settings window, click More > Wired. In the Wired window, select a profile and click
Edit.
You can also associate the authentication servers when creating a new WLAN or wired profile.
2. Click the Security tab.
3. If you are configuring the authentication server for a WLAN SSID, under Security tab, slide to Enterprise
security level.
4. Ensure that an authentication type is enabled.
5. From the Authentication Server 1 drop-down list, select the server name on which dynamic RADIUS
proxy parameters are enabled. You can also create a new server with RADIUS and RADIUSproxy
parameters by selecting New.
6. Click Next and then click Finish.
7. To assign the RADIUSauthentication server to a network profile, select the newly added server when
configuring security settings for a wireless or wired network profile.
You can also add an external RADIUSserver by selecting New for Authentication Server when
configuring a WLAN or wired profile. For more information, see Configuring Security Settings for a
WLAN SSID Profile on page 104 and Configuring Security Settings for a Wired Profile on page 121.
