RADIUS Server

RADIUS Server:

"Network Policy Server (NPS) can be used as a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server to perform authentication, authorization, and accounting for RADIUS clients. A RADIUS client can be an access server, such as a dial-up server or wireless access point, or a RADIUS proxy. When NPS is used as a RADIUS server, it provides the following:

* A central authentication and authorization service for all access requests that are sent by RADIUS clients.

NPS uses a Microsoft® Windows NT® Server 4.0 domain, an Active Directory® Domain Services (AD DS) domain, or the local Security Accounts Manager (SAM) user accounts database to authenticate user credentials for connection attempts. NPS uses the dial-in properties of the user account and network policies to authorize a connection.

* A central accounting recording service for all accounting requests that are sent by RADIUS clients.

Accounting requests are stored in a local log file or a Microsoft® SQL Server™ database for analysis.
