RADIUS Server
RADIUS Authentication
You must never assign a user to groups with overlapping access days or
times: such a configuration prevents you from determining which policy
applies to the user during the overlapping times. For example, if one group
allows access at all times and another group allows access only during
normal work hours, you cannot assign a user to both groups. During the
day, the policies would conflict.
9. Click the OK button.
The user account is displayed in the Network Setup > Local RADIUS Server >
Users screen. Information about the account is listed in these columns:
■ User ID—the username
■ Guest User—displays a red X for normal accounts and a green check for
guest accounts
■ Start Date—the date and time at which a guest account becomes active
(not applicable to normal accounts, which are immediately active)
■ Expiry Date—the date and time at which the guest account becomes no
longer active (not applicable to normal accounts, which are permanent)
When you select an account, the group or groups for the user are displayed in
the Assigned Groups section.
To modify an account, select it and click the Edit button. The EDIT screen,
which is similar to the Add screen, is displayed.
In the EDIT screen, you can change the user’s password and group assignments.
However, you cannot alter the username or the definition of the account as a
normal or guest account. When you have finished your modifications, click
the OK button.
To delete an account, select it in the Network Setup > Local RADIUS Server >
Users screen and click the Delete button. When prompted, click OK to restart
the RADIUS server and apply the change.
Every 24 hours, the Wireless Edge Services xl Module checks the local
RADIUS server database and removes any expired guest accounts.
