Primary Service Authentication Type |
Select the authentication type for the wireless service, which can be: l None: Performs no authentication. l User authentication (802.1X): Performs 802.1X authentication. l Portal: Performs Portal authentication. |
Wireless Service |
Specify the Service Set Identifier (SSID) of the current service template. The SSID can contain letters, numbers and underlines, and is case sensitive. It can contain special characters (except ?). No spaces can exist at the beginning and end of the string. |

Default Vlan Tag |
l If you select Yes, you configure the link type of the ports in VLAN 1 as hybrid and specify that packets to be sent out from VLAN 1 carry the VLAN tag. This configuration requires that no trunk port exists in the VLAN. If there is any trunk port in VLAN 1, you need to change the link type of the port to access. l If you select No, the above operations are not performed for the ports in VLAN 1. |
RADIUS Configuration
On the wireless configuration page, select User authentication (802.1X) for the Primary Service Authentication Type field to enter the RADIUS configuration page, as shown in Figure 1-6.

Description |
Scheme Name |
Specify a name for the RADIUS scheme to be created. |
Service Type |
Select the type of the RADIUS server. Two types are available: standard and enhanced: l extended: Specifies extended RADIUS server, which is usually a CAMS server. In this case, the RADIUS client (access device) and the RADIUS server exchange packets based on the specifications and packet format definitions of a private RADIUS protocol. l standard: Specifies the standard RADIUS server. In this case, the RADIUS client (access device) and the RADIUS server exchange packets based on the specifications and packet format definitions of the standard RADIUS protocols (RFC 2138, RFC 2139, and the updates). |
Authentication IP |
Type the IP address of the RADIUS authentication server. |
Authentication UDP Port |
Type the UDP port number of the RADIUS authentication server. |

Redirect-URL |
Type the URL of the portal authentication server to which all the HTTP requests in the segment are redirected. |
Method |
Specify the portal authentication method to be used, which can be: l Direct: Before authentication, a user manually configures an IP address or directly obtains a public IP address through DHCP, and can access only the portal server and predefined free websites. After passing authentication, the user can access the network resources. The authentication process of direct authentication is relatively simple than that of the re-DHCP authentication. l Layer3: Layer 3 authentication is similar to direct authentication but allows Layer 3 forwarding devices to be present between the authentication client and the access device. l Redhcp: Before authentication, a user gets a private IP address through DHCP and can access only the portal server and predefined free websites. After passing authentication, the user is allocated a public IP address and can access the network resources. |
