Raspberry Pi4 Initial Config

• This page will cover the initial configuration of the Raspberry Pi4 running RADIUSdesk.
• We assume it is plugged into a network with a Huawei LTE Router.
• We will assign a fixed IP Address of 192.168.8.220 to the Raspberry Pi4.
• We will also cover the settings on RADIUSdesk that needs to be adjusted to work with this IP Address.

• Edit /etc/dhcpcd.conf and make sure the following is specified

sudo vi /etc/dhcpcd.conf

• Adapt to fit your environment

interface eth0
static routers=192.168.8.1
static domain_name_servers=192.168.8.1
static ip_address=192.168.8.220
static domain_search=

• Reboot the Raspberry Pi4 for the new settings to take effect.

• Use your browser and go to the IP Address of the Raspberry Pi4.
• Log in. (root / admin)
• Navigate to Other → Settings → Default Settings
• Change the IP Address specified in RADIUS-1 and UAM URL to match the IP Address of the fixed IP Address of the device.
• Click Save to apply the changes.

• In a similar way edit the Captive Portal Exit Point in the Demo1 Mesh (change the IP Address)

• In a similar way edit the Captive Portal Exit Point in the Demo1 Access Point Profile (change the IP Address)

• Congratulations your system is now ready to manage the Access Points.
• There are dedicated Wiki Pages on how to flash and point the Access Points to the server.
