This tutorial explains how you can set up a FreeRadius server with Wifi authentication and accounting on CentOS 5. This howto should work for a newbie. Production deployment is also possible with minor tweaking. But as usual I do not guarantee anything & take no responsibilities if something goes wrong.
This configuration has been tested on following:
OS: CentOS 5.x (patched)
Certificates: Openssl 0.98b
Radius Sever: Freeradius version 1.1.7 (built from fc6 src.rpms)
(Note: This document also assumes that you have a dhcp server already configured & running on the same subnet.)
Protocols configured for:
- WPA1/2 enterprise
- EAP/PEAP/TTLS
Following processes are involved:
1- Install OS
2- Install openssl
3- Generate digital certificates
4- Install / Configure freeradius
5- Configure Access points
6- Configure end wifi clients
