I have a working set up using a hotspot gateway, wpa2 , freeradius and ldap. I need to set up host authentication instead of user authentication.

We had an oversight on a project today and did not get the necessary cabling to configure our new radios for 802.11n. Regardless, I need to get the link up today and configure "N" later. Is there a doc on how to configure the sR71 to use only one antenna? The far end radio is using a cm9. ...

One thing I know can be eliminated is nating, since that will be done by their main firewall. Wasn't sure if there was more to change because of using the same subnet as their local network. When you say 'local user". I am assuming you just mean add a user to "User Manager" Thanks for...

I am setting up a wireless network for a school. The initial plan was to set up all APs to use a 450G box as a Hotspot and gateway. The 450g would then be setup to authenticate users via a freeradius server, pointing to an LDAP server. The tech I am working with has asked that I set things up very s...

For some reason, when I set up a RB450 as a router/firewall, RDP and VNC sessions freeze. I can close the connection and reestablish it without any problems.

I hadn't originally setup freeradius with mysql. I found a doc and got it done. Do I need to comment out all the info I had previously put in the clients.conf and user file?

We have a network of video codecs on our WAN, which are on their own port based vlan. The codecs are all on the same public IP subnet.

Sorry if this ends up being a duplicate post. I am not seeing my new post from earlier today. The dst-nat issue has been resolved.

I guess I am open to user/pass, just need it to be centralized, so I don't have to update every radio.

I was able to get the User Manager working, per the docs, but it seems to be authentication per radio, rather than central management if all radios. Is that accurate, or is there something I am missing in the docs? I prefer to use mac address authentication, if possible.

I have never set up authentication on my radios, and am now looking into a couple methods.

I ended up replacing the wireless cards, since we had already replaced the routerboard. It has not gone down for several weeks now, so not sure what the difference is, but glad it is working reliably now.

Is there a way to install a program like dansguardian on a cf, and configure the routerboard OS to work with it? A link to some docs would be a great help, if this is possible.

Never mind.... I figured out I had it set up correctly. The settings for the eoip tunnel force it to use the proper interfaces, so using "all" is the proper configuration.

A support specialiast at Wisp recommended I implement an ospf set up via an eoip tunnel, rather than use nstreme dual. The main reason was to keep the cpu usage down under heavy traffic. The white paper indicated I should set one tunnel with a metric of 10, and the second tunnel with a metric of 100...

Yes, that is what I tried, but at the moment, the only way I can get them to connect is by putting all 4 cards in the two aps on 5180. If I move to any other frequency I lose connection.

I am running nstreme dual on two 532 boards with cm9s. According to the docs I should separate TX and RX by 200 Mhz. By default the config uses frequency 5180, so I left TX there, and set RX to 5320. I set both radios (boxes) to this. As soon as I change RX to 5320 the radios lose connectivity, if I...
