1/6/2010

In the context of the Wi-Fi test network, the RADIUS clients are the access points that are attached to the test network.

Procedure

To set up RADIUS clients

1. On the Start menu, click Administrative Tools.

2. Open the Internet Authentication Service (IAS) console.

   Note

   The IAS console does not appear as an option in Administrative Tools until you have installed IAS.

3. In the left pane of the window, right-click RADIUS client, and then click New.

   

4. In the New Radius Client wizard, on the Name and Address page, enter a friendly name and an IP address for the access point, and then click Next.

   Warning

   The IP addresses must be from the same subnet as the scope that was set up in the DHCP server.

5. On the Additional Information page, in the Client-Vendor box, keep the default value RADIUS Standard.

6. In the Shared secret box, enter a shared key, and then confirm it.

   Note

   The same key must be configured on the access point to ensure that the server can communicate certificate information to and from the access point.

7. Click Finish.
