• Vendor Type / Attribute Number: 1 (Cisco-AVPair)
• Value Format: shell:roles=”group_attr1 group_attr2 group_attr3 ...”
• Active Directory or LDAP:
• Set up administrator groups.
• Populate these groups with users to whom you want to grant administrator
access. One way to do this is to edit each user’s Member of profile and add
the group to which you want the user to belong. Remember the group names
that you set; you will enter this information when you create administrator roles
in ZoneDirector (see Step 3).
• : See
on page 104 for more information.
2.
Set up ZoneDirector to use an AAA server (Configure > AAA Servers).
3.
Create an Administrator Role in ZoneDirector (Configure > Roles).
• Allow access to all/specific WLANs.
• Allow/deny Guest Pass Generation.
• Ensure that Allow ZoneDirector Administration is enabled, and choose the level
of administration privileges you want to allow for this role.
NOTE
If you do not select the Allow ZoneDirector Administration check box,
administrators that are assigned this role will be unable to log into ZoneDirector
even if all other settings are configured correctly.
4.
Test your authentication settings (Configure > AAA Servers > Test Authentication
Settings).
5.
Specify AAA server to use (Administer > Preferences > Authenticate with Auth Server).
• Verify that the Fallback to admin name/password if failed check box is selected.
Keeping this check box selected ensures that administrators will still be able to
log into the ZoneDirector web interface even when the authentication server is
unavailable.
Congratulations! You have completed setting up ZoneDirector to use external servers
for administrator authentication. Whenever a user with administrator privileges logs into
the ZoneDirector web interface, an event will be recorded. The following is an example
of the event details that you will see:
Admin [user_name] login (authenticated
by {Authentication Server} with {Role}).
