Just a dummy question. May or may not Mikrotik Radius act as a Radius server for 802.1X switch port authentication on the network?
Many thanks in advance.
You mean user-manager?
No I was about Radius option in OS menu, but if you started about user manager I will as if this can be used to authenticate 802.1x wired connection on switch
RADIUS in the ROS menu is about RADIUS client settings (e.g. what RADIUS server to use, and how to connect to that server (port # and secret))
User manager acts as a RADIUS server for RADIUS client requests (is optional package to be installed.)
Most services are managed. But for wifi EAP/PEAP (using username and MSCHAPv2 password to authenticate when using WPA2/Enterprise) the newer User Manager v5 is needed, and is part of ROS 7.2 onwards.
Early ROS 7 User Manager V5 had problems with windows clients in wifi EAP/PEAP. ROS 7.3 is working fine for all client devices, and RADIUS client network devices (switches, AP, routers, …)
A big big thank you for clearing this out, no I know what to do.
