10.2 NAS / Clients¶
Register each device that will send authentication requests to this server (a WiFi access point or VPN concentrator, for example) with a name, IP/CIDR, and shared secret of at least 8 characters.
10.3 Users¶
Add username/password pairs for RADIUS-authenticated users.
10.4 Log¶
Raw and parsed views of authentication attempts, showing timestamp, username, and accept/reject result for each login.
