Wireless Modifying Virtual Access Point Settings 4 Table 11 VAP Field Descriptions Field RADIUS IP Address 1-3 Description Enter up to three IPv4 addresses to use as the backup RADIUS servers. RADIUS Key RADIUS Key 1-3 Enable Radius Accounting If authentication fails with the primary server, each configured backup server is tried in sequence. The address must be valid in order for the access point to attempt to contact the server. Enter the RADIUS key in the text box. The RADIUS Key is the shared secret key for the global RADIUS server. You can use up to 63 standard alphanumeric and special characters. The key is case sensitive, and you must configure the same key on the access point and on your RADIUS server. The text you enter is displayed as large dot characters to prevent others from seeing the RADIUS key as you type. Enter the RADIUS key associated with the configured backup RADIUS servers. The server at RADIUS IP Address-1 uses RADIUS Key-1, RADIUS IP Address-2 uses RADIUS Key-2, and so forth. Select this option to track and measure the resources a particular user has consumed such as system time, amount of data transmitted and received, and so forth. VAP If you enable RADIUS accounting, it is enabled for the primary RADIUS server and all backup servers. You can configure up to 16 VAPs for each wireless radio. VAP0 is the physical wireless radio interface. To disable VAP0, you must disable the wireless radio. Due to the dependency of the WDS links with the VAP0 security mode, VAP0 cannot be configured to None, Static WEP, or 802.1X if the WDS links have WPA Personal as the security mode. If you need to change the security of VAP0 from WPA Personal or WPA Enterprise to None, Static WEP, or 802.1X, then remove the WPA security mode for all the WDS links.

RADIUS IP
Address 1–3
Enter up to three IPv4 addresses to use as the backup
RADIUS servers.
If authentication fails with the primary server, each
configured backup server is tried in sequence. The address
must be valid in order for the access point to attempt to
contact the server.
RADIUS Key
Enter the RADIUS key in the text box.
The
RADIUS Key
is the shared secret key for the global
RADIUS server. You can use up to 63 standard alphanumeric
and special characters. The key is case sensitive, and you
must configure the same key on the access point and on your
RADIUS server. The text you enter is displayed as large dot
characters to prevent others from seeing the RADIUS key as
you type.
RADIUS Key
1–3
Enter the RADIUS key associated with the configured
backup RADIUS servers. The server at RADIUS IP Address-1
uses RADIUS Key-1, RADIUS IP Address-2 uses RADIUS
Key-2, and so forth.
Enable Radius
Accounting
Select this option
to track and measure the resources a
particular user has consumed such as system time, amount
of data transmitted and received, and so forth.
If you enable RADIUS accounting, it is enabled for the
primary RADIUS server and all backup servers.
VAP
You can configure up to 16 VAPs for each wireless radio.
VAP0 is the physical wireless radio interface. To disable
VAP0, you must disable the wireless radio. Due to the
dependency of the WDS links with the VAP0 security mode,
VAP0 cannot be configured to
None
,
Static WEP
, or
802.1X
if
the WDS links have
WPA Personal
as the security mode. If
you need to change the security of VAP0 from
WPA Personal
or
WPA Enterprise
to
None
,
Static WEP
, or
802.1X
, then
remove the WPA security mode for all the WDS links.
