Checklists: Configuring IAS for authenticated switch access

You can use the following checklists to configure both the IAS server and Ethernet switch clients, and to install user certificates on Ethernet clients.

• Checklist: Configuring the IAS server for authenticated switch access

• Checklist: Configuring a first-time Ethernet switch client for authenticated access

• Checklist: Installing a computer certificate on an Ethernet client over an unauthenticated Ethernet connection

• Checklist: Installing a user certificate from floppy disk on an Ethernet client

Note

• You can configure IAS in Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition, with a maximum of 50 RADIUS clients and a maximum of 2 remote RADIUS server groups. You can define a RADIUS client using a fully qualified domain name or an IP address, but you cannot define groups of RADIUS clients by specifying an IP address range. If the fully qualified domain name of a RADIUS client resolves to multiple IP addresses, the IAS server uses the first IP address returned in the DNS query. With IAS in Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition, and Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition, you can configure an unlimited number of RADIUS clients and remote RADIUS server groups. In addition, you can configure RADIUS clients by specifying an IP address range.
