User Management
The Professional Access Point includes user management capabilities for controlling access to your
access points.
User management and authentication must always be used in conjunction with the following two security
modes, which require use of a
RADIUS
server for user authentication and management.
•
IEEE 802.1x mode (see “IEEE 802.1x” on page 114 in Security)
•
WPA with RADIUS mode (see “WPA/WPA2 Enterprise (RADIUS)” on page 117 in Security)
You have the option of using either the internal RADIUS server embedded in the Professional Access
Point or an external RADIUS server that you provide. If you use the embedded RADIUS server, use this
Administration Web page on the access point to set up and manage user accounts. If you are using an
external RADIUS server, you will need to set up and manage user accounts for that server in the Web User
Interface.
On the User Management page, you can create, edit, remove, and view
user accounts
. Each user account
consists of a user name and password. The set of users specified on the User Management page
represent approved
clients
that can log in and use one or more access points to access local and possibly
external networks via your wireless network.
The following topics are covered:
•
Navigating to User Management for Clustered Access Points
•
Viewing User Accounts
•
Adding a User
•
Editing a User Account
•
Enabling and Disabling User Accounts
•
Removing a User Account
•
Backing Up and Restoring a User Database
Note
Users specified on the User Management page are those who use the APs as a connectivity hub, not
administrators of the wireless network. Only those with the administrator user name and password and
knowledge of the administration URL can log in as an administrator and view or modify configuration
settings.
