ProSAFE Wireless Controller WC7600 Note: If the network authentication uses an external RADIUS server, you cannot configure captive portal authentication. That is, if you configure an external RADIUS server with WPA, WPA2, or WPA & WPA2 (or if you use legacy 802.1X), you cannot configure captive portal authentication; the network authentication must be Open System, Shared Key, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, or WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK (see Network Authentication and Data Encryption Options on page 99). Note these guidelines for captive portal user authentication and accounting through an external RADIUS server: • You can use either the basic-Auth RADIUS server or a RADIUS server of an advanced authentication group. You cannot use the external LDAP server. • The wireless controller uses CHAP or MS-CHAP as the authentication protocol with the authentication server. • The following RADIUS authentication variables are supported on the wireless controller: - User-Name - User-Password - WISPr-Session-Terminate-Time - Session-Timeout If you change the values for any of these variables before the wireless client disassociates from the access point, the new values are not updated on the wireless controller. • A managed access point can send accounting information to the external RADIUS server because the wireless controller functions as a proxy RADIUS client for the managed access point. The following RADIUS accounting variables are supported on the wireless controller: - Acct-Input-Octets - Acct-Output-Octets - Acct-Input-Gigawords - Acct-Input-Gigawords Configure a Portal You can configure a guest portal or captive portal with a local or external authentication server. To configure a guest portal or a captive portal: 1. Open a web browser. In the browser's address field, type the http:// followed by the IP address that you assigned to the wireless controller.
