Configuring EAP-MD5
Benefits and
Purpose
EAP-MD5 validates the identity of devices or users before they gain
access to network resources. You can configure the UTN server for
the EAP-MD5 network authentication. This ensures that the UTN
server gets access to protected networks.
Mode of Operation
EAP-MD5 describes a user-based authentication method via a
RADIUS server. The UTN server must be defined as user (with user
name and password) on a RADIUS server. The authentication method
EAP-MD5 must then be enabled on the UTN server and the user
name and password need to be entered.
Requirements
The UTN server is defined as user (with user name and password)
on a RADIUS server.
Proceed as follows:
1. Start the myUTN Control Center.
2. Select
SECURITY – Authentication
.
3. Select
MD5
from the
Authentication method
list.
4. Enter the user name and the password that are used for the
configuration of the UTN server on the RADIUS server.
5. Click
Save & Restart
to confirm.
The settings are saved.
Configuring EAP-TLS
Benefits and
Purpose
EAP-TLS (Transport Layer Security) validates the identity of devices
or users before they gain access to network resources. You can con-
figure the UTN server for the EAP-TLS network authentication. This
ensures that the UTN server gets access to protected networks.
Mode of Operation
EAP-TLS describes a certificate-based authentication method via a
RADIUS server. For this purpose, certificates are exchanged between
the UTN server and the RADIUS server. An encrypted TLS connection
between the UTN server and the RADIUS server is established in this
process. Both RADIUS server and UTN server need a valid, digital cer-
tificate signed by a CA. The RADIUS server and the UTN server must
