Overview of RADIUS server
The Nortel SNAS is integrated with full featured RADIUS server. The
RADIUS server is used to authenticate users through PAP or CHAP
authentication methods. It also works in a more complex 802.1x
environment, which supports EAP-MD5, TLS, PEAP, and TTLS
authentication methods.
Radius server configuration includes the RADIUS realms, clients,
authentication methods, EAP authentication methods, dictionary,
accounting logs, and accounting ports components.
