Radius Designates that a Radius server is used in the authentication
credential verification. If using this option, the connected PC is
required to have its Radius credentials verified with an external
Radius server. Additionally, the Radius Server’s Active Directory
should have a valid user configured and have a PAP based Remote
Access Policy configured for Radius Admin Authentication to work.
Radius Server IP Specify the numerical (non DNS name) IP address of the Remote
Authentication Dial-In User Service (Radius) server. Radius is a
client/server protocol and software enabling remote-access
servers to communicate with a server used to authenticate users
and authorize access to the requested system or service.
Port Specify the port on which the server is listening. The Radius server
typically listens on ports 1812 (default port).
Shared Secret Define a shared secret for authentication on the server. The shared
secret is required to be the same as the shared secret defined on
the Radius server. Use shared secrets to verify Radius messages
(with the exception of the Access-Request message) sent by a
Radius-enabled device configured with the same shared secret.
Apply the qualifications of a well-chosen password to the
generation of a shared secret. Generate a random, case-sensitive
string using letters, numbers and symbols. The default is symbol.
