A user's access request is sent to a proxy server if it cannot be authenticated by local RADIUS resources. The proxy
server checks the information in the user access request, and either accepts or rejects the request. If the proxy
server accepts the request, it returns configuration information specifying the type of connection service required
to authenticate the user.
The RADIUS proxy appears to act as a RADIUS server to the NAS, whereas the proxy appears to act as a RADIUS
client to the RADIUS server.
When the access point's RADIUS server receives a request for a user name containing a realm, the server
references a table of configured realms. If the realm is known, the server proxies the request to the RADIUS server.
The behavior of the proxying server is configuration-dependent on most servers. In addition, the proxying server
can be configured to add, remove or rewrite requests when they are proxied.
