Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a security authentication
client/server protocol that supports authentication, authorization and accounting, which is
widely used by Internet service providers. It is the most common method of authenticating and
authorizing dial-up and tunneled network users.
The built-in RADIUS client feature enables the router to assist the remote dial-in user or a
wireless station and the RADIUS server in performing mutual authentication. It enables
centralized remote access authentication for network management.
Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description
Enable Check to enable RADIUS client feature.
Server IP Address Enter the IP address of RADIUS server
Destination Port The UDP port number that the RADIUS server is using.
The default value is 1812, based on RFC 2138.
Shared Secret The RADIUS server and client share a secret that is used to
authenticate the messages sent between them. Both sides
must be configured to use the same shared secret. The
maximum length of the shared secret you can set is 36
characters.

Re-type the Shared Secret for confirmation.
After finished the above settings, click OK button to save the settings.
