Flex 7500 Wireless Branch Controller Deployment Guide
Support for an Increased Number of Radius Servers
Limitations
•
Wired clients behind WGB will always be on the same VLAN as WGN itself. Multiple VLAN
support for clients behind WGB is not supported on Flex AP for WLANs configured for Local
Switching.
•
A maximum of 20 clients (wired/wireless) are supported behind WGB when associated to Flex AP
on WLAN configured for local switching. This number is the same as what we have today for WGB
support on Local mode AP.
•
Web Auth is not supported for clients behind WGB associated on WLANs configured for local
switching.
Support for an Increased Number of Radius Servers
Prior to release 7.4, the configuration of RADIUS servers at the FlexConnect group was done from a
global list of RADIUS servers on the controller. The maximum number of RADIUS servers, which can
be configured in this global list, is 17. With an increasing number of branch offices, it is a requirement
to be able to configure a RADIUS server per branch site. In release 7.4 onwards, it will be possible to
configure Primary and Backup RADIUS servers per FlexConnect group which may or may not be part
of the global list of 17 RADIUS authentication servers configured on the controller.
An AP specific configuration for the RADIUS servers will also be supported. The AP specific
configuration will have greater priority than the FlexConnect group configuration.
The existing configuration command at the FlexConnect Group, which needs the index of the RADIUS
server in the global RADIUS server list on the controller, will be deprecated and replaced with a
configuration command, which configures a RADIUS server at the Flexconnect Group using the IP
address of the server and shared secret.
Summary
•
Support for configuration of Primary and Backup RADIUS servers per FlexConnect group, which
may or may not be present in the global list of RADIUS authentication servers.
•
The maximum number of unique RADIUS servers that can be added on a WLC is the number of
FlexConnect groups that can be configured on a given platform times two. An example is one
primary and one secondary RADIUS server per FlexConnect group.
•
Software upgrade from a previous release to release 7.4 will not cause any RADIUS configuration
loss.
•
The deletion of the primary RADIUS server is allowed without having to deleting the secondary
RADIUS server. This is consistent with the present FlexConnect group configuration for the
RADIUS server.
Procedure
Step 1
Mode of configuration prior to release 7.4.
A maximum of 17 RADIUS servers can be configured under the AAA Authentication configuration.
