Primary and Secondary DNS Address: The IP address of DNS on the
network. A DNS maps numerical IP addresses to domain names and
can be used to identify network hosts by familiar names instead of the IP
addresses.
•
If you have one or more DNS servers located on the local network,
type the IP addresses in the text fields provided. Otherwise, leave the
addresses as all zeros (0.0.0.0). Note: These servers are for AP use
and not for clients attaching to the AP.
RADIUS
Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) is an authentication
protocol that uses software running on a central server to control access to
RADIUS-aware devices on the network. An authentication server contains
a database of user credentials for each user that requires access to the
network.
A primary RADIUS server must be specified for the access point to
implement IEEE 802.1X network access control and Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA) wireless security. A secondary RADIUS server can also be specified
as a backup if the primary server fails or becomes inaccessible.
In addition, the configured RADIUS server can also act as a RADIUS
Accounting server and receive user-session accounting information from
the access point. RADIUS Accounting can be used to provide valuable
information on user activity in the network.
Note: This guide assumes that you have already configured RADIUS
servers to support the access point. Configuration of RADIUS server
software is beyond the scope of this guide, for more information see
documentation provided with the RADIUS server software.
