RADIUS Client
RADIUS Client
For authentication to function, the client’s transmission must go through the Adit and reach the back-
end server that performs the actual authentication. The wireless client contacts the access point, which
in-turn, communicates with the RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service) server. The
RADIUS server verifies the client’s credentials to determine whether the device is authorized to connect
to the LAN. If the RADIUS server accepts the client, the server responds by exchanging data with the
Adit, including security keys for subsequent encrypted sessions.
