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.
If you choose WPA-Radius as the security configuration, you have to specify WPA mode,
algorithm, Radius server, Radius server port and Radius server secret respectively.
Available parameters are listed below:
Item Description
WEP
Disable
- Disable the WEP Encryption. Data sent to the AP
will not be encrypted.
Enable
- Enable the WEP Encryption.
IP Address
Enter the IP address of RADIUS server.
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.
Session Timeout

re-authentication. Set to zero to perform another
authentication immediately after the first authentication has
successfully completed. (The unit is second.)
