    This document provides instructions for setting up a wireless network in Packet Tracer using Linksys devices with WPA2 Enterprise authentication, a RADIUS server, and DHCP. Key steps include configuring the Linksys router and RADIUS server, adding user credentials to the RADIUS server, and setting the wireless security settings on the router and wireless clients to use WPA2 Enterprise with the RADIUS server for authentication. Connectivity is tested using a simple PDU tool to observe RADIUS authentication packets.

    Setting Up a Wireless Network

    Configuring a Linksys access point


    So far, we have configured wireless networks without additional features such as
    encryption or DHCP. In this section, we'll use the Linksys devices available in Packet
    Tracer and create a topology with all these features.

    We will also add a server (RADIUS) to this topology and enable RADIUS
    authentication. WPA2-PSK enterprise will be the mode of authentication we will
    choose in the Linksys router (Wireless Router0). After building this topology, switch
    the default module of the laptop (Laptop0) with a Linksys-WMP300N module. Open
    the Linksys router, go to the GUI tab, navigate to the Wireless tab, and change the
    SSID field. We'll be using Linksys for this demo, as shown in the following figure:

    Open the server, navigate to the Config tab, select AAA, and configure RADIUS
    authentication with four user credentials. Configuration will be as follows.

    Network configuration will be as follows:

    ClientName ClientIP ServerType Key


    Linksys 192.168.0.1 Radius password

    User setup will be as follows:

    UserName Password
    alice pwd
    bob s3ret
    john secr3t
    user1 passwd

    Configure a static IP for the server as 192.168.0.50. Next, under the GUI tab
    of the Linksys router, navigate to Wireless | Wireless security and enter the
    following settings:

    Security Mode WPA2 Enterprise


    Encryption AES
    RADIUS Server 192.168.0.50
    RADIUS Port 1645
    Shared Secret password

    Move on to the wireless end devices, go to the Config tab, select Wireless, and enter
    the following settings:

    • SSID: Linksys
    • Authentication: WPA2
    • User ID: john
    • Password: secr3t

    Make sure you use a different pair of credentials for each wireless end device. Once
    this is configured, the end device will get an IP address and you'll see the wireless
    link indicating a connection.

    Setting Up a Wireless Network

    Now, we'll configure the laptop that has the Linksys module. Go to the Desktop tab,
    open the PC Wireless utility, choose the Profiles tab, and click on New. Enter any
    name here, you'll see a list with the SSID name shown, click on Advanced Setup and
    a wizard will guide you through the process.

    Use the simple PDU tool to test the connectivity. If you use the simulation mode
    before a wireless connection is established between two devices, you will see the
    RADIUS packet being sent to the server by the router.

    Summary
    This chapter introduced you to the wireless devices used in Packet Tracer. We also
    configured a simple wireless topology without any authentication and used the
    physical workspace to demonstrate the range of wireless devices. Finally, we mixed
    technologies such as WPA2, RADIUS, and DHCP and created a topology that uses
    Linksys devices.

    In the next chapter, we'll see how to segment a network at Layer 2 by configuring
    VLANs, and also see how to configure routing between VLANs.
