AT&T Authentication Server
Many customers allow AT&T to manage their user authentication via the AT&T authentication server
(a.k.a. AT&T Service Manager). You, as the Customer Account Administrator, can define and administer
the users within your account using central tools.

authentication requests proxy to your RADIUS server via the AT&T authentication server for validation.
