Authentication for a WM-AD for AAA
Set up authentication by AAA (802.1x) method
1 In the WM Access Domain Configuration screen, highlight the WM-AD name and click on the Auth &
Acct tab. For an AAA WM-AD, the AAA version of the Authentication screen appears.
2 Follow steps 2 to 10 described above for Captive Portal, except for Step 5 (Authentication Type)
which does not apply to AAA. See “Authentication for a WM-AD for Captive Portal” on page 77.
3 To save the authentication parameters for this WM-AD, click on the Save button.
MAC-based authentication for a WM-AD
MAC-based authentication enables network access to be restricted to specific devices by MAC address.
The Summit WM-Series Switch queries a RADIUS server for MAC address when a wireless client
attempts to connect to the network.
MAC-based authentication can be set up on any type of WM-AD, in addition to the Captive Portal or
AAA authentication.
To set up a RADIUS server for MAC-based authentication, you must set up a user account with
UserID=MAC and Password=MAC for each user.
If MAC-based authentication is to be used in conjunction with the 802.1x or Captive Portal
authentication, an additional account with a real “UserID” and “Password” must also be set up on the
RADIUS server.
