The access point uses a RADIUS client as a mechanism to communicate with a central server to authenticate users and
authorize access.
The client and server share a secret (a password). That shared secret followed by the request authenticator is put through
a MD5 hash to create a 16 octet value used with the password entered by the user. If the user password is greater than 16
octets, additional MD5 calculations are performed, using the previous ciphertext instead of the request authenticator. The
server receives a RADIUS access request packet and verifies the server possesses a shared secret for the client. If the
server does not possess a shared secret for the client, the request is dropped. If the client received a verified access accept
packet, the username and password are considered correct, and the user is authenticated. If the client receives a verified
access reject message, the username and password are considered incorrect, and the user is not authenticated.
