Local RADIUS Server

Usually an external RADIUS Server is used to authenticate users. In some cases,
this is not a feasible solution. In these situations, an access point can be made to
act as a RADIUS Server. Here, users are authenticated against the local database
configured in the access point. This is called a Local RADIUS Server feature. You
can also make other access points in the network use the Local RADIUS Server
feature on an access point.
