Wi-Fi Array
Configuring the Wi-Fi Array 215
If you are using the Console port, the Array will authenticate administrators
using accounts configured on the Admin Management window first, and then use
the RADIUS servers. This provides a safety net to be ensure that you are not
completely locked out of an Array if the RADIUS server is down.
Permissions for RADIUS administrator accounts are controlled by the RADIUS
Service-Type attribute. To grant read-write permission, configure the RADIUS
server to send back the Service-Type attribute with a value of Administrative. To
grant read-only permission, the RADIUS server should send the Service-Type
attribute with a value of NAS Prompt.
When configuring administrator accounts on the RADIUS server, you must
observe the same restrictions for length and legal characters as when creating
these accounts on the Array using the Admin Management window: the user
name and password must be between 5 and 50 characters, inclusive. For special
characters that may be used, see “Character Restrictions” on page 126.
Use this window to enable/disable administrator authentication via RADIUS,
and to set up primary and secondary servers to use for authentication of
administrators attempting to log in to the Array. When finished, click on the Save
button to save your changes.
