Get the strength and security of RADIUS without building, maintaining, or monitoring physical servers. It’s also quick to roll out managed RADIUS to your organization to authenticate users to Wi-Fi, VPNs, switches, and network devices securely. This is a full walkthrough of configuring ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú's RADIUS-as-a-Service (RaaS) and a Meraki Wireless Access Point (WAP).

- Server IP Addresses: For current RADIUS server IPs, see ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú RADIUS Server Details.
- RADIUS Port(s): 1812/UDP (accounting port 1813 is not supported).
- Shared Secret: The Shared Secret is created by performing the steps in RADIUS Configuration and Authentication.

Meraki Configuration
When changing the Host IP of the RADIUS server in the Meraki configuration, you must also re-input the secret for that record. If you do not, the new setting may fail.
The following steps describe the process to configure the Meraki configuration. They are accurate as of 8/11/2016. If a discrepancy is found, contact ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Support.

When using the EAP-TTLS/PAP protocol, the Test button will not test correctly, but you can test from your workstation after configuring the certificates.
- Scroll to RADIUS servers, and click Add a server. ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú recommends that you add both RADIUS server IPs for redundancy.
