5.5.5 RADIUS (Access Point Mode Only)
Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) authentication is only available when the
ENH700EXT is configured for Access Point Mode. Use this feature if you have a RADIUS server.
WPA(TKIP), WPA2(AES), and WPA2 Mixed encryption types are also supported.
The following figure shows an example of a RADIUS configuration, where two ENH700EXT devices
installed at different locations communicate with each other wirelessly. In this configuration, one
ENH700EXT is configured for Access Point Mode and connected to a RADIUS server via a switch,
while the other ENH700EXT is configured for Client Bridge Mode. The RADIUS server uses an
authentication scheme such as PAP or CHAP to verify a user's identification, along with, optionally,
other information related to the request, such as the user's network address or phone number,
account status and specific network service access privileges. The RADIUS server then returns one of
three responses to the ENH700EXT : Access Reject (user is denied access to all requested network
resources), Access Challenge (requests additional information from the user such as a secondary
password), PIN, token or card), or Access Accept (user is granted access).
The sections that follow the figure below describe how to configure your ENH700EXT for use in a
RADIUS environment.
