(RADIATOR) Radius and Wireless APs

[jai]

Hi,

Thanks hugh for info.

I am trying to configure Cisco AP with Radiator. Radius server has started
with default eap_multi.cfg file and in cisco AP the IP address of Radius
Server,
EAP Authentication and Network-EAP has been enabled.


1. Cisco AP is not able to connect Radius, i don't where i am doing wrong. I
used tcpdump and enabled
    Cisco Debug, i didn't see any request going to Radius Server.

2. if any one has configured Radiator with AP, plz send the configuration
file

3.  I have configured Cicso AP with NoCat software, After client connects to
AP, it popup
    with Login Page and allots the IP address using DHCP, Now how should i
get Radiator server
   to popup tht page, and how should allot the Static IP address if needed.


Thanks


Rgds
Jai

Hello Jai -

A Wireless AP looks to Radiator the same as any other NAS, therefore
you will need to configure a <Client ...> clause for each one. You may
also need to configure additional Handlers or Realms, depending on what
else you are doing in your configuration file.

When a user moves from one access point to another, there will be a new
authentication, just like if the user had hung up a modem call and
dialled again.

You should configure the AP's for radius authentication and then watch
a trace 4 debug from Radiator to see what is contained in the
authentication and acounting requests, then configure Radiator
accordingly.

You should probably read the AP vendors' documentation first of all to
see what radius support is implemented in the AP software.

There has also been quite a lot of discussion on this topic on the
mailing list, so you should check teh archive site too.
