This chapter describes how to configure security settings on the WAP device

Several features require communication with a RADIUS authentication server. For 
example, when you configure Virtual Access Points (VAPs) on the WAP device, you 
can configure security methods that control wireless client access (see the 

page). The Dynamic WEP and WPA Enterprise security methods use an external 
RADIUS server to authenticate clients. The MAC address filtering feature, where 
client access is restricted to a list, may also be configured to use a RADIUS server 
to control access. The Captive Portal feature also uses RADIUS to authenticate 
clients.

You can use the Radius Server page to configure the RADIUS servers that are 
used by these features. You can configure up to four globally available IPv4 or IPv6 
RADIUS servers; however, you must select whether the RADIUS client operates in 
IPv4 or IPv6 mode with respect to the global servers. One of the servers always 
acts as a primary while the others act as backup servers. 

In addition to using the global RADIUS servers, you can also configure each VAP to 
use a specific set of RADIUS servers. See the 

 page.
