You do not need to select the values for all these parameters when you
configure a service. The Service Profile wizards help you configure the
essential parameters and assign appropriate values to the rest. Some of
the parameters that 3WXM automatically sets are not configurable using
the Service Profile wizards. To view all settings (except access rules), or
change settings, select the service profile and click
Properties .
Access Rules
The service profile wizards automatically create network access rules to
control access to the SSIDs configured by the wizards. The access rules
match on all usernames (or MAC addresses for voice service profiles).
Table 19 lists the access rules automatically created by the service profile
wizards.
The ** and * values are wildcards. The ** wildcard matches on all
usernames. To match on all MAC addresses (MAC access rules only), use
only a single *.
You can restrict access by specifying part of the username or MAC
address along with a wildcard *. In this case, only the usernames or MAC
addresses that match the partial username or address are allowed access.
User Globs and MAC Address Globs For a user glob, type a full or
partial username to be matched during authentication (1 to 80
alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs). The format of a user
glob depends on the client type and EAP method.
„
For Windows domain clients using Protected EAP (PEAP), the user glob
is in the format
Windows_domain_name\username . The Windows
domain name is the NetBIOS domain name and must be specified in
capital letters. For example, EXAMPLE\sydney, or EXAMPLE\*.*, which
specifies all usernames whose usernames contain periods.
