Preparing the Controller or Gateway for Policy Manager Integration
Use the following procedures to prepare the mobility controller or gateway Gateway is a network node that allows traffic to flow in and out of the network. to integrate with Policy Manager.
Add a controller or gateway to Policy Manager: The mobility controller or gateway Gateway is a network node that allows traffic to flow in and out of the network. is responsible for managing access to the Wireless LAN Local Area Network. A LAN is a network of connected devices within a distinct geographic area such as an office or a commercial establishment and share a common communications line or wireless link to a server..
Add a Policy Manager/RADIUS Server to the controller or gateway and then assign the server to a server group: The Policy Manager server is a RADIUS Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service. An Industry-standard network access protocol for remote authentication. It allows authentication, authorization, and accounting of remote users who want to access network resources. server. You must add a Policy Manager/RADIUS Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service. An Industry-standard network access protocol for remote authentication. It allows authentication, authorization, and accounting of remote users who want to access network resources. server to the mobility controller or gateway Gateway is a network node that allows traffic to flow in and out of the network. because doing so allows Policy Manager to be integrated with the mobility controller or gateway Gateway is a network node that allows traffic to flow in and out of the network. and the wireless LAN Local Area Network. A LAN is a network of connected devices within a distinct geographic area such as an office or a commercial establishment and share a common communications line or wireless link to a server. authentication process.
Configure an AAA profile on the Mobility controller or gateway for 802.1X authentication: The AAA Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting. AAA is a security framework to authenticate users, authorize the type of access based on user credentials, and record authentication events and information about the network access and network resource consumption. profile configures the authentication for a Wireless LAN Local Area Network. A LAN is a network of connected devices within a distinct geographic area such as an office or a commercial establishment and share a common communications line or wireless link to a server.. The AAA Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting. AAA is a security framework to authenticate users, authorize the type of access based on user credentials, and record authentication events and information about the network access and network resource consumption. profile defines the type of authentication (in this example, 802.1x), the authentication server group, and the default user role for authenticated users.
Configure the RADIUS server as an RFC 3576 (DA) Server: You can configure the Policy Manager RADIUS Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service. An Industry-standard network access protocol for remote authentication. It allows authentication, authorization, and accounting of remote users who want to access network resources. server to send user disconnect, dynamic authorization Dynamic authorization refers to the ability to make changes to a visitor account’s session while it is in progress. This might include disconnecting a session or updating some aspect of the authorization for the session. (DA) , and session-timeout messages,
Add a SSID to the mobiity controller or gateway for 802.1X authentication: An SSID Service Set Identifier. SSID is a name given to a WLAN and is used by the client to access a WLAN network. profile defines the name of the network, authentication type for the network, basic rates, transmit rates, SSID Service Set Identifier. SSID is a name given to a WLAN and is used by the client to access a WLAN network. cloaking, and certain wireless multimedia settings for the network.
Configure a Virtual AP (VAP) Profile: In a
