Figure 93- Configuring WISPr Authentication
The parameters described above, to define WISPr RADIUS attributes, are specific to the RADIUS
server your ISP uses for WISPr authentication. Contact your ISP to determine these values. You
can find a list of ISO and ITU country and area codes at the ISO and ITU websites (www.iso.org
and http://www.itu.int).
NOTE: A Boingo smart client uses a NAS identifier in the format <CarrierID>_<VenueID> for
location identification. To support Boingo clients, you must also configure the NAS identifier
parameter in the Radius server profile for the WISPr server.
MAC Authentication
Media Access Control (MAC) authentication is used to authenticate devices based on their
physical MAC addresses. It is an early form of filtering. MAC authentication requires that the
MAC address of a machine must match a manually defined list of addresses. This form of
authentication does not scale past a handful of devices, because it is difficult to maintain the list
