Table 23: Configuration Parameters for WLAN Security Settings in an Employee or Voice Network Parameter Description Security Level When Termination is enabled, the W-IAP by itself acts as an authentication server and terminates the outer layers of the EAP protocol, only relaying the innermost layer to the external RADIUS server. It can also reduce the number of exchange packets between the W-IAP and the authentication server. NOTE: Instant supports the configuration of primary and backup authentication servers in an EAP termination-enabled SSID. NOTE: If you are using LDAP for authentication, ensure that W-IAP termination is configured to support EAP. Authentication server 1 and Authentication server 2 Select any of the following options from the Authentication server 1 dropdown list: l Select an authentication server from the list if an external server is already configured. To modify the server parameters, click Edit. l Select New to add a new server. For information on configuring external servers, see Configuring an External Server for Authentication on page 151. l To use an internal server, select Internal server and add the clients that are required to authenticate with the internal RADIUS server. Click the Users link to add the users. For information on adding a user, see Managing W-IAP Users on page 139. If an external server is selected, you can also configure another authentication server. Enterprise, Personal, and Open security levels. Load balancing Set this to Enabled if you are using two RADIUS authentication servers, so that the load across the two RADIUS servers is balanced. For more information on the dynamic load balancing mechanism, see Dynamic Load Balancing between Two Authentication Servers on page 151. Enterprise, Personal, and Open security levels. Reauth interval Specify a value for Reauth interval. When set to a value greater than zero, W-IAPs periodically reauthenticate all associated and authenticated clients. The following list provides descriptions for three reauthentication interval configuration scenarios: l When Reauth interval is configured on an SSID performing L2 authentication (MAC or 802.1X authentication)-When reauthentication fails, the clients are disconnected. If the SSID is performing only MAC authentication and has a pre-authentication role assigned to the client, the client will get a post-authentication role only after a successful reauthentication. If reauthentication fails, the client retains the preauthentication role. l When Reauth interval is configured on an SSID performing both L2 and L3 authentication (MAC with captive portal authentication)-When reauthentication succeeds, the client retains the role that is already assigned. If reauthentication fails, a pre-authentication role is assigned to the client.
