Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) is a logon 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
multiple user name/password pairs with associated privilege levels for each user or
group that require management access to a switch.
