Configure an Extreme Networks Device as a RADIUS Server

Before you can perform this task, you must have a network policy with an SSID with Enterprise (WPA/WPA2 802.1X) access security, and a default RADIUS server group.

Extreme Networks devices can serve as RADIUS authentication servers and respond to 802.1X requests from other Extreme Networks devices acting as RADIUS authenticators. The Extreme Networks RADIUS server can store user accounts locally or check user login credentials against user accounts stored externally on the following user database servers: Active Directory, or LDAP.

Select a User Database Type from the drop-down list or select the plus sign.
If you selected the plus sign, select a device to configure as a RADIUS Server.
Continue to the Configure AAA Server Profile section and see Configure an AAA Server Profile.
If you selected Active Directory in your AAA Server Profile, see Add an Active Directory Server.
If you selected LDAP Server in your AAA Server Profile, see Configure an LDAP Server.
Select SAVE RADIUS SERVER.
