- When the root user or any admin user log into RADIUSdesk, the system detects if you do not have any clouds to manage.
- If this is the case, it will launch the Setup Wizard.
- The Setup Wizard is the recommended way to create a new cloud.
What does the Setup Wizard do?
- Step 1 contains the basic information needed to create a new Cloud.
- When the wizard is complete you can simply add Access Points to your networks and you are good to go!
- Adding a new Cloud should take no longer than 5 minutes!!
- The wizard creates the following items automatically so you don’t have to.
- The default values work out of the box but if you require something different you can always edit these items later.
- Let’s assume you sign up a hotel chain called Royal Hotel. Then the following items will be created.
