Setting Up Remote MAC Authentication

Remote MAC Authentication makes use of a Remote Authentication Dial-in
User Service (RADIUS) server to perform client authentication. RADIUS is an
authentication protocol that uses software running on a central server to
control access to RADIUS-aware devices on the network. An authentication
server contains a database of user credentials for each user that requires
access to the network. It is also used to implement IEEE 802.1X (802.1X)
network access control and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) wireless security.
If a RADIUS is available on the network, you can configure the access point
to perform remote MAC authentication.
