Overview
ISO/IEC 29341-8-13:2008 standard defines the Internet Gateway Device Control Protocol - Radius Client Service within the framework of the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) Device Architecture. Published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), this standard targets enhanced control and configuration of the RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) component embedded in IEEE 802.11 Wireless Access Points. It is specifically designed for unmanaged network environments such as residential networks and small office LANs.
The overarching goal of this standard is to provide a flexible and interoperable solution that simplifies the setup and management of wireless access points, strengthens network security through centralized authentication, and facilitates effective diagnostics and monitoring of wireless network issues. By aligning with the UPnP Device Architecture version 1.0, it ensures seamless peer-to-peer connectivity among wireless devices, intelligent appliances, and personal computers in ad-hoc or unmanaged settings.
Key Topics
Radius Client Service Control
Enables remote configuration and management of RADIUS client parameters on wireless access points, offering centralized control over authentication services for secure Wi-Fi networks.Service Modeling Definitions
The standard specifies detailed state variables and actions including:NumberOfAuthServerEntries: Tracks the count of authentication servers configured.AuthServerIPAddress,AuthServerPortNumber, andAuthServerSharedSecret: Core parameters for RADIUS server interaction.- Actions for adding, deleting, retrieving authentication server entries, and resetting settings.
Security and Authentication
Provides a framework for secure wireless access by integrating RADIUS client services with IEEE 802.11, improving authentication processes in unmanaged LAN environments.Eventing and Moderation
Implements an event model for monitoring and reporting state changes, crucial for troubleshooting and maintaining reliable wireless network operations.Compliance and Extensibility
The service type adheres to UPnP schema specifications (e.g.,urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:RadiusClient:1) and supports extensions by vendors for additional functionality while maintaining interoperability.
Applications
Residential and Small Office Networks
Facilitates easy setup and secure management of home routers and small business access points without complex IT infrastructure.Wireless Access Point Management
Network administrators or automated management systems can remotely configure RADIUS parameters to control user authentication and access rights.Network Security Enhancement
Improves Wi-Fi security by enabling standardized RADIUS client configuration, helping to mitigate unauthorized access in unmanaged network spaces.Troubleshooting and Monitoring
Supports diagnostic tools that utilize event notifications to detect and resolve wireless network issues, enhancing reliability and user experience.
Related Standards
ISO/IEC 29341-8-13:2008 is part of the ISO/IEC 29341 series defining UPnP Device Architecture, including multiple components related to network devices and services:

FOREWORD
1) ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) form
the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC
participate in the development of International Standards. Their preparation is entrusted to technical
committees; any ISO and IEC member body interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this
preparatory work. International governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with ISO and IEC
also participate in this preparation.
2) In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC
1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for
voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies
casting a vote.
3) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC and ISO on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested IEC and ISO member bodies.
4) IEC, ISO and ISO/IEC publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted
by IEC and ISO member bodies in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the
technical content of IEC, ISO and ISO/IEC publications is accurate, IEC or ISO cannot be held responsible for
the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user.
5) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC and ISO member bodies undertake to apply IEC, ISO and
ISO/IEC publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications.
Any divergence between any ISO/IEC publication and the corresponding national or regional publication should
be clearly indicated in the latter.
6) ISO and IEC provide no marking procedure to indicate their approval and cannot be rendered responsible for
any equipment declared to be in conformity with an ISO/IEC publication.
7) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
8) No liability shall attach to IEC or ISO or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual
experts and members of their technical committees and IEC or ISO member bodies for any personal injury,
property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including
legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication of, use of, or reliance upon, this ISO/IEC publication or
any other IEC, ISO or ISO/IEC publications.
9) Attention is drawn to the normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
IEC and ISO draw attention to the fact that it is claimed that compliance with this document may involve the use of
patents as indicated below.
ISO and IEC take no position concerning the evidence, validity and scope of the putative patent rights. The holders
of the putative patent rights have assured IEC and ISO that they are willing to negotiate free licences or licences
under reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions with applicants throughout the world. In this respect,
the statements of the holders of the putative patent rights are registered with IEC and ISO.
