4400 WLAN controller

[rvolkman1]

I'd like to add a 4402 controller to manage a number of 1231 APs converted to LWAPP. I'd like to use Web authentication against a Win2k3 AD database. Is there a Cisco security appliance or security application that should be placed in between the 4400 and the AD server?

Thanks - RV

Hi RV,

I believe you can use CISCO ACS server.

The ACS Solution Engine (appliance) is what we have here. It can use an agent on a member server for AD authentication. In addition, it is our RADIUS and TACACS+ server for our router and switch management access as well as our VPN authenticator for our firewalls. It works really well, but is a little quirky to configure.
