## freeradius-3.2.8 – RADIUS server implementation

## Description

    RADIUS, which stands for "Remote Authentication Dial In User Service",
    is a network protocol - a system that defines rules and conventions for
    communication between network devices - for remote user authentication
    and accounting. Commonly used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs),
    cellular network providers, and corporate and educational networks, the
    RADIUS protocol serves three primary functions:

    * Authenticates users or devices before allowing them access to a network
    * Authorizes those users or devices for specific network services
    * Accounts for and tracks the usage of those services

    FreeRADIUS is a modular open-source implementation of the RADIUS protocol
    featuring numerous authentication types, including Extensible Authentication
    Protocol (EAP), support for virtual servers and more.
