RADIUS Server
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) authentication is a popular protocol used to
authenticate users by means of an external server instead of (or in addition to) an internal device
user database that is limited to the memory capacity of the device. In essence, RADIUS
authentication allows you to validate a large number of users from a central location.
