Setting up a Win 2008 R2 Radius Server for wireless authentication

I have a member server running windows 2008 R2 Enterprise. I would like to set it up as a Radius server for wireless access using Meraki MR34 APs. I have a lot of remote locations that connect to the main office via VPN tunnels using ASA firewalls. We just installed Meraki access points at most of these locations. I setup a radius server a long time ago and it was on an AD server running Win 2003. The server I want to use is a Win 2008R2 Enterprise member server. I installed the Network Policy and Access Services role and registered it with AD. Not sure what else I need. I know I need AD Certificate Services but can that run on my member server or does that need to run on an AD server? Not sure if a self signed cert is a good idea or not. Appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks for the info. I already purchased a cert from GoDaddy. I will be using the EAP-TLS Option.

I just looked at the links. I want to run Radius on a member server using a GoDaddy cert. That being the case how much of these tutorials actually apply?

OK-
I installed Win 2008R2 Enterprise
I have installed the NPS role
I installed the Web Server (IIS)
I purchased a Godaddy ssl cert and installed it using IIS

Where do I go from here? The links provided talk adding roles like certificate services an AD, none of which I am using.
