WAX610 RADIUS - Need separate Authentication & Accounting Servers

Hi,

The WAX610 AP does not allow different RADIUS servers to be defined for authentication and accounting functions.  This is very disappointing given that this is a business product.

The scenario is that we need to authenticate to our main user directory but have accounting performed by the firewall to permit network access.  This works fine with our older TP-Link EAP225 AP which allows a separate server to be defined for each RADIUS function.

I noticed that on the original release firmware that the UI had separate server fields to define the auth & accounting functions but it would throw an error if I tried to set different servers, which made me think it might just be available in a later firmware.  However the latest firmware has removed the separate accounting fields completely and there is now only a switch to enable or disable accounting information to be sent to the single RADIUS server.

As a business product, being able to send accounting information to a separate device would be a common feature and I am very surprised that this is not currently possible on the WAX610 as this renders the product not fit for purpose for our intended use case.

Will an update be available to resolve this in the near future?

Best regards,

Bam
