9.10 Introduction to RADIUS

RADIUS is based on a client-sever model that supports authentication and accounting, where

the access point is the client and the server is the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server

handles the following tasks, among others:

• Authentication

Determines the identity of the users.

• Accounting

Keeps track of the client’s network activity.

The ZyXEL Device is equipped with an internal RADIUS server. See Section 15.1 on page

177 for more details.

9.11 Configuring RADIUS

Use RADIUS if you want to authenticate wireless users using the internal authentication

server (see Section 15.1 on page 177) or an external server.

You can configure up to four RADIUS server profiles. Each profile also has one backup

authentication server and a backup accounting server. These profiles can be assigned to an

SSID profile in the SSID configuration screen

To set up your ZyXEL Device’s RADIUS server settings, click WIRELESS > RADIUS. The

screen appears as shown.
