Configuring a RADIUS Server
If you want to use the PTP 820 RADIUS feature, you must first install a RADIUS server and
configure it to work with the PTP 820 device.
The following subsections describe how to configure a Win2008 RADIUS server and a Linux
FreeRADIUS server to work with a PTP 820. For the sake of simplicity, the subsections describe
how to create three users: an Advanced user with Advanced read/write permissions, a Normal user
with regular read/write permissions, and a Viewer user with no read/write permissions.
