7.7 Miscellaneous Profile Configuration
Refer to the advanced profile’s Miscellaneous menu item to set the profile’s NAS configuration. The profile
database on the RADIUS server consists of user profiles for each connected network access server (NAS)
port. Each profile is matched to a username representing a physical port. When users are authorized, it
queries the user profile database using a username representative of the physical NAS port making the
connection.
To set a profile’s advanced configuration:
1. Select the Configuration tab from the Web UI.
2. Select Profiles from the Configuration tab.
3. Either select Add if creating a new profile or Edit if modifying the configuration on an existing profile.
4. Select Miscellaneous.

5. Set a NAS-Identifier Attribute up to 253 characters in length.
This is the RADIUS NAS-Identifier attribute that typically identifies the Access Point where a RADIUS
message originates.
6. Set a NAS-Port-Id Attribute up to 253 characters in length.
This is the RADIUS NAS port ID attribute which identifies the device port where a RADIUS message
originates.
7. Select the Turn on LEDs option to keep the AP-6511’s functioning as normal. Some deployments
(hospitals for example) prefer to keep an Access Point’s LED from illuminating, so consider this option
when creating the profile configuration.
