RADIUS Client |
RADIUS Client is used for authentication of users against a RADIUS Server when
XAUTH is enabled. The RADIUS server is a database of user accounts used in
larger environments. If a RADIUS server already exists, it can be used for
authenticating users that want to connect a VPN Client to the router. The RADIUS
client first attempts to authenticate with the Primary server. If the Primary
Server is not available, the Secondary Server is used. |
