Callback Manager
Callback Manager is an Extreme Campus Controller component that supports the integration of
Extreme Campus Controller and ExtremeGuest. Callback Manager supports a Centralized site
deployment only. It can report the following configuration changes to an ExtremeGuest server:
• Centralized site configuration changes
• AP configuration changes for APs associated with a Centralized site
• Network configuration changes for networks that are associated with a Centralized site.
Note
The ExtremeGuest user configures the report requests for each ExtremeGuest server.
Multiple servers are supported, and each server can request a dierent report.
To report configuration changes:
1. Callback Manager logs into the registered ExtremeGuest server over a secure http server (https):
2. Callback Manager receives the ExtremeGuest server request.
3. Callback Manager posts the requested configuration changes.
4. ExtremeGuest saves the changes.
Configure the User ID and password that Callback Manager uses to access the ExtremeGuest server on
the ExtremeGuest Server Settings page.
If an ExtremeGuest server is unreachable, Callback Manager retries connection every few minutes. After
the server is reached, Callback Manager sends the latest configuration changes. In this scenario,
changes can be missed while the server is unreachable, but upon connection, the server receives the
latest configuration information.
The reporting process is persistent after an Extreme Campus Controller restart. After the appliance is
restarted, Callback Manager continues to report changes that it had yet to report.

AAA RADIUS Authentication
You have options when configuring AAA Authentication:
• Use the local Network Access Control (NAC) to terminate or proxy a RADIUS authorization and
accounting request.
• Use the local Network Access Server (NAS) to distribute RADIUS requests.
If you are going to authenticate with the Local Named Repository, opt for configuring authentication
through the local NAC. If you are going to use an external RADIUS server, you have the option to
configure the RADIUS server through the local NAC, through the local NAS, or connect directly to the
RADIUS server, bypassing Extreme Campus Controller.
• To configure AAA Policy for external RADIUS, bypassing Extreme Campus Controller, go to
Configure > AAA Policy.
• To configure AAA RADIUS servers within the local NAC, go to Onboard > AAA.
