Radius Authentication

[bob.bartlett]

I am looking to set up a AP1100 access point and want to use the Radius authentication package that is part of Windows, does the AP authentcation package work with it?

IAS for Win2K and Server2003 / SBS 2003 will work, with some exceptions.

Apparently the MS IAS RADIUS doesn't do LEAP (the the IOS "Local RADIUS Server" for the AP will).

If you want to do PEAP or EAP-TLS, you'll need to either obtain a certificate for the IAS server, or bring up Certificate services and generate one. For EAP-TLS, you'll need to push the certificate out to each of the clients (generated from the same cert as the server).

Other than that, it's pretty straight forward: create an access policy on the IAS for wireless, change the authentication / encryption for the system that you're implementing, and "go for it."

Good Luck
