Wi-Fi employee access – WatchGuard Firebox
In this topic, you will learn how to configure the WatchGuard Firebox wireless controller to work together with Portnox™ Cloud and 802.1X RADIUS authentication for Wi-Fi connections.
Important:
This guide gives general instructions for integrating Portnox Cloud with specific
third-party devices. We try to provide useful examples for common models, but settings can differ between manufacturers,
models, and environments. Because of this, we cannot guarantee these steps will work in every case. For questions or
problems with RADIUS setup – which is an industry standard and not specific to Portnox – or with device-specific settings
and troubleshooting, we recommend checking the device manufacturer’s documentation and contacting their support team.
Portnox Support can help when possible, but detailed setup of third-party devices is usually best handled by the
manufacturer. We also recommend updating your NAS device firmware to the latest version, as old firmware can cause
issues.
Important:
All values in this configuration are examples. Make sure to adjust the configuration to
your individual profile names, RADIUS server addresses, ports, and keys by replacing the values that are presented as
underlined italics.
Warning:
This topic contains documentation prepared by our support agents more than 12 months ago. It
may not cover the newest models or the newest interfaces of NAS devices. We’re working on bringing you updated documentation
for NAS devices in the near future. However, the methods of setting up third-party devices may still change when the
manufacturers update their firmware or release new models.
