Working with Third-party APs
You can set up the SCALANCE IWLAN Controller to handle wireless device traffic from third-
party APs, while still providing policy and network access control. This process requires the
following steps:
Define Authentication by Captive Portal for the Third-party AP
WLAN Service
802.1x Authentication is not supported directly by the SCALANCE IWLAN Controller. However,
this type of authentication can be supported by the actual third-party AP. All other options for
authentication are supported at the controller.
1. On the WLAN configuration window for the third-party WLAN Service, click the Auth &
Acct tab.
2. In the Authentication Mode drop-down list, click Internal or External, then click the
Configure button.
3. Define the Captive Portal configuration as described in “Configuring Captive Portal for
Internal Authentication” on page 6-25.

1. In the WLAN Services panel, select the third-party WLAN Service.
2. In the IP Address field, type the IP address of a third-party AP.
3. In the Wired MAC Address field, type the MAC address of the AP.
4. Click the Add button to add the AP to the list.
