The Bay Networks RADIUS implementation is such that the RADIUS Server
functionality and the Account and NAS configuration are carried out using
separate executable programs, RADIUS_M.EXE and RADIUS_S.EXE. This
allows configuration changes to be made without having to halt the RADIUS
Server, providing continuous online network operation.
The initial and day to day configuration is carried out by the RADIUS_M
program (RADIUS Manager), while the actual RADIUS Server function of
Authentication, Access Control and Accounting is performed by the
RADIUS_S program.
The Reference Section is arranged in such a way that it guides the reader
through the RADIUS Manager Menus and gives a brief description of each
selectable parameter and their available options. The Reference section then
follows describes the Menus and options provided by the RADIUS Server
program.
It should be noted that an "Account" is almost equivalent to a "Path" on a
Nautica Router, and as a result all common variables use the same name. It is
recommended that a Marlin or CLAM Version 3 Router Reference Manual is
read in conjunction with this RADIUS Reference Manual to obtain an all
round understanding of the common variables used.

The Nautica family, particularly the Marlin need to be configured for
RADIUS operation prior to installation. To carry out this configuration,
please see the relevant section of the Nautica Manual.
For other manufacturer's products please refer to the relevant manual and
configure them accordingly.
Note: Marlins configured for use with a RADIUS Server start with no Paths
configured. All Paths are downloaded using the RADIUS protocol.
