Adding ArubaCentral to corporate authentication server
09-07-201501:25 PM
Hello, I am currently working on setting up our new Aruba WiFi environment. The new environment consists of 8x AP-215's and 5x RAP-3NW's. We are a Construction company and the appeal was that we could use the CloudCentral controller to manage and deploy the RAP units out to job trailers. Now to the question at hand.... Our parent company uses radius authentication and it requires us to add an IP to the allowed list in order for our AD credentials to work. If I am using a cloud based controller, what IP do I add to the Radius server that will allow these units to authenticate. My local AP-215's seem easy enough as I can apply static IP's to them. The RAP units would be dynamic in nature so this seems like more of a daunting task. Anyone with instructions or advice please respond ASAP as we are very excited about implementing this in the field.

Does that mean I add the IP for every AP to the Cisco Radius server? When I try to authenticate to the WiFi network, what device is reaching out to the Radius server? This is what I am trying to figure out. I found that if I add 1 AP to the Radius server, I can authenticate, however that is based on a static IP being assigned to the AP. in the case of the RAP unit that is not possible.
