Authenticating with internal database

Is there a way to authenticate wifi users against internal database? I have to authenticate my wifi clients with username and password, but I’m trying to avoid using 3rd party radius server.

:open_mouth: you can use user-manager…

if I’m correct, usermanager is not really a radius server and stuff like wpa2-eap is not supported with it. Or not?

?

Where you are read this wrong info?

well, in discussions like this http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/wireless-authentication-with-user-manager/54362/1

Mmm… the post are from version 5.x and from 2012, two years and some versions ago…

So, if it newer version supports wpa2-eap, could you point me to example somewhere? I’m googling for several hours now =)

I do not use it directly for wpa2-eap, but my user-manager 6.15 used for pppoe-server and hotspot, has already the fields for wireless eap methods…

It seems that it works well for pppoe and hotspot, but as a standalone radius server it’s not an option =(

it works well because user-manager is a standalone radius server. You can manage all kinds of logins, like, router login, wireless, tunnels.

However I’m stuck with “unknown authentication algorithm” error now and can’t find any guides describing my setup.

I tried to figure out how to solve that, and it seems it is still not possible to use user manager for non-Mikrotik AP as RADIUS for WPA2 enterprise. I use Ubiquiti Unifis and authorization works fine with a FreeRadius server, but will not work with user manager.

I setup the Unifis as routers within user manager and that seems to work properly, I can see all requests in the user manager log. Unfortunately all of these fail with “Unknown authentication algorithm”.

If there is some hidden option I did not find, please point me to that.
