RADIUS Box
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) is a standardized
method of information exchange between a device that provides network
access to users (such as a Remote Access Server used for network dial-
up) and a device that contains authentication and profile information for
these users (such as BaySecure Access Control).
RADIUS provides a higher level of security than acp, and offers an
accounting feature to track security events.
You can set these RADIUS parameters:

interface routing information for selected RACs.
