Checklist: Configuring the IAS server and wireless access points for wireless access |
Configure the network connection that corresponds to your wireless network adapter for EAP-TLS authentication. |
Right-click the network connection, and then click Properties. Click the Authentication tab. Select Smart Card or other Certificate as the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) type. Click Properties, and then click Use a certificate on this computer. Click OK three times to save changes to the network connection. |
Move your wireless client computer within range of the configured wireless access point. |
|
After your wireless client computer has guest access, join the domain. |
|
Restart the computer when prompted and log on to the domain. You will still have a guest connection. |
|
Install a user certificate on the wireless client computer. |
|
After 10 minutes, your wireless client computer is disconnected because of the dial-in constraint in the new wireless client remote access policy that has been configured on the IAS server. When the wireless client computer reconnects, it will authenticate with the new user certificate and receive an authenticated connection to the wireless access point. |

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.
