Configure the NAC 800 as a RADIUS Server
Test Authentication Settings
The following authentication methods require the NAC 800 to bind to a
directory server:
■
Windows domain (AD)
■
OpenLDAP
■
Novell eDirectory
After configuring one of these methods, you should test whether the NAC
800 can:
■
Contact the directory
■
Bind to it
■
Optionally, perform a successful search
You should test the settings to eliminate problems before the NAC 800 begins
to authenticate end-users on a live network.
Follow these steps:
1. Complete the steps listed in “Specify the Quarantine Method (802.1X)” on
page 4-12.
2. Complete the steps for your selected authentication method. (See “Con-
figure Authentication Settings” on page 4-14.)
3. You should see a window similar to the one illustrated in Figure 4-12. Find
the
Test < authentication method > settings
area.
For example, in Figure 4-12, you can see the Test Novell eDirectory
settings area.
