Clients

The Clients page contains a list of clients that are allowed to make requests of RADIUS Server. For each client, such as wireless router or VPN, you must enter the client IP address along with the secret key, which is configured on both RADIUS Server and client.

Two methods are available for adding clients: 1) single IP address and 2) IP address range.

Single IP address

With this procedure, you must add clients by entering specific IP addresses, which provides better security than the IP address range procedure does.

To set up clients by single IP address:

  1. Click Add.
  2. Enter the display Name and Secret key for the client.
  3. Enter a specific IP address in IP address.
  4. Enter 255.255.255.255 in Subnet mask.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Click the Apply button to finish.

IP address range

This procedure allows you to add a large number of RADIUS clients at one time, rather than adding each RADIUS client individually. You can add a group of clients that are all configured with IP addresses from the same subnet.

To set up clients by IP address range:

  1. Click Add.
  2. Enter a display Name and Secret key.
  3. Enter a specific IP address in IP address.
  4. Enter a Subnet mask, for example, 255.255.255.0. For more information about Subnet mask, please see here.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Click the Apply button to finish.
