1. Specify the IP address or the fully qualified
domain name of the RADIUS server.
NOTE: In this case, specify the IP address of the

When you first add the RADIUS
server, the mobility controller
populates the Host field with a
dummy IP address—127.0.0.1.
Key
2. Enter the RADIUSshared secret that is
configured on the authentication server (in
this case, the W-ClearPass server).
NOTE: The RADIUS Key value on the controller
and the RADIUSShared Secret on the W-
ClearPass server must be identical.
The maximum length is 128
characters.
CPPM credentials
3. Enter the W-ClearPass server credentials if
you want the mobility controller to use a
configurable username and password instead
of a support password.

server.
l Range: 1 to 65535

The NAS ID should be unique to the

RADIUS server. For example, a fully
qualified domain name is suitable
as a NAS ID.
