RADIUS Client
RADIUS Client is used for authentication 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.

Secret Phrase: The RADIUS server and client (this router) authenticate to each other with the use of a shared phrase. Enter the Secret Phrase as configured on the RADIUS server for this router (client).
Primary Server NAS Identifier: A NAS (Network Access Server) Identifier MUST be present in a RADIUS request. Ensure that the NAS Identifier is configured the same on both client and server.
