Domain Suffix Match
ruckus.cloud
This
setting validates the certificate of the EAP Server by
its DNS name. The value you enter must match a
dNSName element of the
certificate’s subjectAltName
extension. Values are compared one domain part at a
time, starting from the top-level domain. You can enter
multiple values separated by semicolons. The certificate
is valid if at least one value matches. You cannot use
wildcards. For example: example.com matches
server.example.com but not server-example.com.
This
Domain Suffix Match setting is only
available for EAP connections.
The domain name is
used to validate the server certificate, which is the certificate from
FreeRADIUS. Therefore, it is not used for the certificate template or the
client certificate.
You can view the certificates by
clicking on the Certificate Management in the My
Services page.
