ProSafe 20-AP Wireless Controller WC7520 Reference Manual • External LDAP. You can define only one LDAP server, which applies to the basic group. You must specify its configuration on the Authentication Server screen (see the next section) so that you will be able to select this option for profiles that use this authentication method. The profiles that you set up can be configured to work with different authentication servers. For example, you could set up a Guest profile with no authentication, an Engineering profile that uses external RADIUS authentication, and a Marketing profile that uses external LDAP authentication. The settings that you specify here in the Authentication Server screen affect the selections available in the Network Authentication drop-down list and the corresponding Authentication Server field in the Edit Profile screen (Figure 49, Editing Basic Security Profiles on page 85.) Configuring Basic Authentication Server Settings You can use the Basic Authentication Server screen to set up one server. To configure an authentication server: 1. Select Configuration > Security >Basic > Authentication Server. The Basic Authentication Server screen displays: Figure 56. 2. Change the settings described in Table 28, Authentication Server Settings. 3. Click Apply to save your settings. Table 28.
