Configuring RADIUS
Remote Authorization Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) servers provide a centralized 802.1X or MAC-based
network access control. The device is a RADIUS client that can use a RADIUS server to provide centralized
security.
An organization can establish a Remote Authorization Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server to provide
centralized 802.1X or MAC-based network access control for all of its devices. In this way, authentication
and authorization can be handled on a single server for all devices in the organization.
