RADIUS client

Authentication over an external server
The concept of RADIUS is based on an external authentication server.
Each row of the table contains access data for one server. In the search order, the primary
server is queried first. If the primary server cannot be reached, secondary servers are
queried in the order in which they are entered.
If no server responds, there is no authentication.

The authentication must be made locally on the device.
The authentication must be handled via a RADIUS server.
The authentication is possible both with the users that exist on the device (user name
and password) and via a RADIUS server.
The user is first searched for in the local database. If the user does not exist there, a
RADIUS request is sent.
The authentication must be handled via a RADIUS server.
A local authentication is performed only when the RADIUS server cannot be reached
in the network.
