Virtual Smart Zone Radius Protocol cann't by PAP

[avatarcyt]

My Virtual Smart Zone is 6.0.0.0.1331 ，then I use Proxy(SZ Authenticator)，Create Radius ，
Test  AAA  by PAP is Good。
But when I actually connect back to Radius through the AP, it fails
Error log display  "chap: ERROR: &control:Cleartext-Password is required for authentication"

I want use Protocol PAP , where can i do it set ?

PAP and CHAP protocol are used only for controller testing , this is done for user/roles validation and connectivity check, whereas actual client uses EAP/radius protocol to authenticate when using 802.1X WLAN. If the AAA test is success from controller but client fails to connect you need to check your Connection request policy and NPS policy on the server. Although if you are using Web auth WLAN then by default it uses CHAP and can be changed to PAP using below AP CLI command :

set aaa auth-method pap

Hey sir,

if i want to enter "set aaa auth-method pap " this command on cli .

In what mode should this command be executed on vsz?

Hi Kedo,

So you want to change the aaa auth method to pap from default chap and I assume you want this for your web auth WLAN. This command needs to be executed on AP CLI and if there are bulk APs you can create an AP CLI script and push command via SZ.
