Selecting RADIUS Servers

You have the option to specify up to three RADIUS servers for authentication and accounting. The first server in the list is the first active server for both Primary-Backup and Round-Robin. For Primary-Backup, the first server is also the primary server. In the event of the first server fails, the next server in the list (backup server) becomes active. In the case of Round-Robin configuration, each server in the list is contacted in a round-robin fashion starting with the first server. See Configuring Advanced RADIUS Servers Settings.

To select RADIUS servers for authentication and accounting:

  1. From the top menu, click VNS.
  2. In the left pane expand the WLAN Services pane, then click the WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) Service.
    The WLAN Servicesconfiguration page is displayed.
  3. Click the Auth & Acct tab.
  4. Select one or more servers. To select a server:
    • Click the + sign in the appropriate column heading to select a server for that specific function, or
    • Click Select RADIUS to apply your selection to all three functions.
      The RADIUS Selection dialog displays.
