Management Tool
BreezeMAX Wi² and BreezeACCESS Wi² System Manual 135
8.1.3.1 Administrator Authentication
Access to the management tool is protected by a username and password. The factory default setting
for both is admin . It is recommended that you change both at initial setup, and then regularly
thereafter.
8.1.3.2 Authenticating Administrators Using a RADIUS Server
The AP can be configured to use an external RADIUS server to authenticate administrators . One
advantage of this method is that it enables several administrator accounts to be created, each with its
own username and password.
Configure RADIUS authentication as follows:
1 Define an account for the administrator on the RADIUS server.

CAUTION
If you forget the administrator password, the only way to access the management tool is to reset
the AP to factory default settings. For information see
“Resetting to Factory Defaults” on page 219 .
