config

The config command defines RADIUS server settings for the named WLAN service in the current context, overriding default RADIUS server configuration. The config command is accessible from the wlan:<WLAN-service-name>:auth context of the CLI. Use this command to configure the RADIUS server as an accounting, authentication or MAC authentication server.

config (radius (role acct|auth|mac) [prot CHAP | PAP | MS-CHAP | MS-CHAP2])

Parameters

radius Specifies the name of the RADIUS server to configure
role acct|auth|mac Specifies the role of the RADIUS server as accounting, authentication, or MAC authentication server, respectively.
prot CHAP | PAP | MS-CHAP | MS-CHAP2] Specifies the Authentication type

Usage

The config command is not available when the authentication mode is guestportal. When the authentication mode is disabled, MAC must be enabled for this command to be available. For authentication mode command information, see mode. For mac command information, see mac.

For third party APs SSIDs, this command is only visible when mac is set to enable and only mac authentication is supported.

After executing the config command to configure a RADIUS server, you can proceed to configure additional server attributes such as NAS ID and NAS IP address. When you are finished configuring RADIUS server attributes, use the exit command to return to the wlans:<WLAN-service-name> context.

Example

The following example configures the RADIUS server “radius1” as an authentication server:

EWC.extremenetworks.com:wlans:cnl-AAA:auth# config radius1 role auth prot PAP
EWC.extremenetworks.com:wlans:cnl-AAA:auth# show
Current selected Radius server radius1 role auth
Priority  Name     Role  NAS IP              NAS ID        Auth Type
1         radius1  auth  Use VNS IP address  Use VNS name  PAP
NAS identifier: Use VNS name
NAS IP address: Use VNS IP address
