13.5 Client Router Mode
In Client Router Mode, the OM2P-LC/OM2P-HS’s internal DHCP server allows a number of
LANs to
automatically generate IP addresses to share the same Internet. In this mode, connect an
AP/WISP wirelessly and connect to LANs via a wired connection.
13.6 RADIUS Connections
Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) authentication is available when
configuring the OM2P-LC/OM2P-HS wireless advanced settings (see Chapter 8). Use this
feature if you have a RADIUS server. WPA(TKIP), WPA2(AES), and WPA2 Mixed encryption types
are also supported.
The following figure shows an example of a RADIUS configuration, where two OM2P-
LC/OM2P-HS devices installed at different locations communicate with each other wirelessly.
In this configuration, one OM2P-LC/OM2P-HS is configured for Access Point Mode and
connected to a RADIUS server via a switch, while the other OM2P-LC/OM2P-HS is configured
for Client Bridge Mode. The RADIUS server uses an authentication scheme such as PAP or
CHAP to verify a user's identification, along with, optionally, other information related to the
request, such as the user's network address or phone number, account status and specific
network service access privileges. The RADIUS server then returns one of three responses to
the OM2P-LC/OM2P-HS : Access Reject (user is denied access to all requested network
resources), Access Challenge (requests additional information from the user such as a
secondary password), PIN, token or card), or Access Accept (user is granted access).
