17.5 Technical Reference
This section provides some technical background information about the topics
covered in this chapter.
A trusted AP is an AP that uses the NWA’s internal RADIUS server to authenticate
its wireless clients. Each wireless client must have a user name and password
configured in the AUTH. SERVER > Trusted Users screen.
The following figure shows how this is done. Wireless clients make access requests
to trusted APs, which relay the requests to the NWA.
