Gateway 7001 Series Manual De Usuario

Wireless clients configured to use either “WPA with RADIUS” or “IEEE 802.1x” security 
modes with an external RADIUS server that supports TLS-EAP certificates must obtain a 
TLS certificate from the RADIUS server. This is an initial one-time step that must be 
completed on each client that uses either of these modes with certificates. In this 
procedure, we use the Microsoft Certificate Server as an example.

Go to the following URL in a Web browser:

https://IPAddressOfServer/certsrv/

Where IPAddressOfServer is the IP address of your external RADIUS server or of the 
Certificate Authority (CA), depending on the configuration of your infrastructure.

A security alert opens.

If you want to use IEEE 802.1x mode with EAP-TLS certificates for 
authentication and authorization of clients, you must have an external 
RADIUS server and a Public Key Authority Infrastructure (PKI), 
including a Certificate Authority (CA), server configured on your 
network. It is beyond the scope of this document to describe the 
configuration of the RADIUS server, PKI, and CA server. Consult the 
documentation for those products.

Some good starting points available on the Web for the Microsoft 
Windows PKI software are: “How to Install/Uninstall a Public Key 
Certificate Authority for Windows 2000" at
