Service) protocol, MacRADIUS offers a powerful yet easy-to-use command
center for managing the authentication and configuration of users dialing
in to networks. MacRADIUS lets a network administrator keep a single
database of user information that can be utilized by multiple network
access server devices from different vendors, and allows the administrator
to manage this database with a graphical user interface that streamlines
and simplifies tasks.
