RADIUS is a simple package exchange in which your AP acts as a message relay between the 
wireless client and the network RADIUS server. 

You should know the IP addresses, ports and share secrets of the external RADIUS server and/or 
the external RADIUS accounting server you want to use with your NWA. You can configure a 
primary and backup RADIUS and RADIUS accounting server for your NWA.

Use this screen to set up your NWA’s RADIUS server settings. Click Wireless > RADIUS. The 
screen appears as shown.

Backup

If the NWA cannot communicate with the Primary accounting server, you 
can have the NWA use a Backup RADIUS server. Make sure the Active 
check boxes are selected if you want to use backup servers.

The NWA will attempt to communicate three times before using the Backup 
servers. Requests can be issued from the client interface to use the backup 
server. The length of time for each authentication is decided by the wireless 
client or based on the configuration of the ReAuthentication Timer field in 
the Security Settings screen.
