Support Notes Release WS.02.07 Configuring Authentication for Web-Users Note Use this section to supplement the information in the chapter “Configuring the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Module” of the Management and Configuration Guide (5013-5912, May 2007). Instead of (or in addition to) using the local list to authenticate users, you can use a RADIUS server. If the RADIUS server authenticates a user, that user has the rights configured on the RADIUS database.
Support Notes Release WS.02.07 If the server does not send the proper VSAs, the user receives the monitor role (read-only) to the Web browser interface. The module’s internal server does not support VSAs, so you should use the local server only to authenticate users that require read-only access. Note If you do not correctly configure the RADIUS server, you can lock yourself out of the Wireless Edge Services xl Module Web browser interface.

Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WS.01.05 Known Software Issues and Limitations This section identifies issues you may encounter when using a ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Module (J9001A) or a ProCurve Redundant Wireless Services xl Module (J9003A). To review the list of issues and limitations since the last general release published, begin with “Release WS.02.07” on page 23. Release WS.01.05 ■ In the Web browser interface, radio information is missing in the Wireless Statistics Screen.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WS.02.07 ■ Applet (39451) — The user is unable to copy a configuration file from TFTP to the runningconfig. The recommended method for configuration file transfer is to copy to the startupconfig and reboot into the intended configuration.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WS.02.07 ■ Applet (38133) — If invalid syntax is used to configure any of the Radio > Global Settings, a generic "communication error" message is sent to the web management interface. ■ Applet (38532) — Changing screens in the WLAN Setup > Assignment page may trigger a message that warns that the user has un-applied changes, even when no changes have been made.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WS.02.07 ■ Security (40983) — Pairwise Master Key (PMK) caching allows the module to store a station’s PMK after the station disassociates with a Radio Port so that the key remains in place if the station reassociates with a different Radio Port. If PMK caching is enabled, setting ACLs through ProCurve Identity Driven Manager (IDM) will not work. To use the ACL features in IDM, disable PMK caching.
