Configuring RADIUS
Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) defines a method of
centralizing authentication and accounting information for networks with many
remote dial-in users. By placing authentication and accounting functions in one
central location, you can improve security and better manage large networks.
In a network using RADIUS, the router is the RADIUS client. The client is the
connection point between remote users and a RADIUS server. The server has the
information that it needs to identify remote users and to keep accounting
information for each call.
For more information, See Configuring RADIUS.
