4. Configure the Secure Shell field to set timeout values to reduce network inactivity.
5. Use the Admin Authentication buttons to specify the authentication server connection
method.
6. Use the Radius Server if a Radius server has been selected as the authentication server,
enter the required network address information.
Authentication
Timeout
Defines the maximum time (between 30 - 120 seconds) allowed for
SSH authentication to occur before executing a timeout. The
minimum permissible value is 30 seconds.
SSH Keepalive
Interval The SSH Keepalive Interval defines a period (in seconds) after
which if no data has been received from a client, SSH sends a
message through the encrypted channel to request a response from
the client. The default is 0, and no messages will be sent to the
client until a non-zero value is set. Defining a Keepalive interval is
important, otherwise programs running on a server may never
notice if the other end of a connection is rebooted.
Local
The
access point
verifies the authentication connection.
Radius Designates that a Radius server is used in the authentication
credential verification. If using this option, the connected PC is
required to have its Radius credentials verified with an external
Radius server. Additionally, the Radius Server’s Active Directory
should have a valid user configured and have a PAP based Remote
Access Policy configured for Radius Admin Authentication to work.
Radius Server IP Specify the
numerical (non DNS name)
IP address of the Remote
Authentication Dial-In User Service (Radius) server. Radius is a
client/server protocol and software enabling remote-access
servers to communicate with a server used to authenticate users
and authorize access to the requested system or service.
Port Specify the port on which the server is listening. The Radius server
typically listens on ports 1812 (default port).
