Setting up RADIUS on Server 2008 R2 with DD-WRT access points

I use DD-WRT wimax for some time and I install it everywhere it' a great product . Now I have to put up a hotspot and I discovered small addon that installs on ipcop that allows you to create hotspot with interfece blue but to use it i must put a server so i started a radius windows 2003 server R2. Cn anybody know that the setting up RADIUS on Server 2008 R2 with DD-WRT access points. Please suggest.

The great innovation of Windows Server 2008 for the protection network is its component NPS stands for Network Policy Server . This is the new RADIUS server to replace Microsoft IAS (Internet Authentication Service ) . Recall that a RADIUS server is responsible for centralized authentication and authorization based on Active Directory generally . Completely redesigned, the NPS service is presented as the keystone of the NAP technology.

In our case, the RADIUS clients that will be used primarily for remote access VPN server and network hardware that supports 802.1X . It is important to remember that the data passing between the client and the RADIUS server should always be encrypted ( using IPsec for example). It is also possible via the configuration options or create a remote RADIUS server groups . This allows our server to become NPS RADIUS proxy by redirecting requests to other RADIUS servers of the company.

You eed to use NPS is a rule in the list of network used to allow this connection request , it consults the list of constraints . These include cases in our methods of authentication. It is possible to select conventional methods (MS- CHAP v2 , EAP ) , but also to perform only a health test , which will result not authenticate the user . This is useful, for example in the case of enforcement by DHCP does not provide authentication information.

Due to the modular components of NAP , it is possible to consider future methods of enforcement . Regarding physical access to the corporate network , there are three components to monitor the status of client : access to the DHCP server , filtering using the 802.1X protocol and IPSec policies . For clients connecting remotely via VPN, it is also possible via the new remote access server (Routing and Remote Access Server , RRAS ) Windows Server 2008 to perform a check when the VPN connection from a client . Recently, Microsoft also decided to use NAP to service users Terminal Server ( remote desktop or application).

TS Gateway allows users to connect to the corporate network from the Internet using a secure connection ( RDP over HTTPS). Depending on your policy , users will have access to the entire desktop of Windows or when one or more applications . The implementation of NAP increases the security of your network by accepting only customers with a bill of health consistent with your policy.
