IronWiFi Cloud RADIUS - Managed Network Access Control

IronWiFi is a fully managed cloud RADIUS and network access control (NAC) platform that secures Wi-Fi for guests and employees - no on-premise servers required. Trusted by 1,000+ organizations in 108 countries, IronWiFi runs across six global regions with a 99.9% uptime SLA and delivers low-latency authentication wherever your sites are located.

Unlike traditional on-prem RADIUS deployments that take days or weeks to configure, most organizations authenticate their first users within 15 minutes. Built-in certificates, policies, and device trust mean you skip the complexity of managing FreeRADIUS or NPS servers entirely. Built-in OpenRoaming and Passpoint support lets visitors connect automatically and securely - a capability few cloud RADIUS platforms offer out of the box.

• Captive Portals - Branded guest portals with social login, email capture, or payment gateways
• 802.1X / WPA2-Enterprise - Certificate-based and credential-based authentication for employees and managed devices
• OpenRoaming and Passpoint - Automatic, secure onboarding for visitors without passwords or portal interaction
• SAML / Okta SSO - Federate identity with your existing directory for seamless employee access
• Role-Based Policies - Assign VLANs, bandwidth limits, and session rules by user group or device type
• Accounting and Reporting - Full session logs, usage analytics, and exportable reports for compliance audits

Connect access points and controllers from Cisco Meraki, Aruba, Ruckus, UniFi, MikroTik, Fortinet, Cambium, EnGenius, TP-Link Omada, and 40+ additional brands. No proprietary agents or firmware modifications are needed - just point your AP's RADIUS settings to IronWiFi.

Your access points send standard RADIUS traffic to IronWiFi's nearest cloud endpoint - no agents, tunnels, or firmware changes. Authentication is served from six global regions (US, EU, Asia, Africa, Australia, Middle East) with automatic failover: if a region has an issue, traffic routes to the nearest healthy region, and most access points cache authenticated sessions locally as a safety net. The platform runs on Google Cloud with multi-region redundancy, backed by a 99.9% uptime SLA.

A hotel chain with hundreds of locations can onboard thousands of guests daily via OpenRoaming: guests arriving from partner networks connect instantly without portal friction, while staff authenticate through 802.1X with SAML/Okta SSO. Centralized reporting gives the IT team visibility across every property from a single dashboard.

IronWiFi holds a SOC 2 Type II report issued by Johanson Group LLP. All authentication traffic is encrypted in transit, and the platform is designed for zero-trust network access principles.

1. Subscribe to a plan sized to your access points or user count
2. Add IronWiFi's RADIUS server address and shared secret to your access point or controller
3. Configure your SSID for 802.1X or captive portal mode
4. Test authentication - most deployments are live in under 15 minutes

Prerequisites: Your access points must support external RADIUS (standard on enterprise-grade hardware) and outbound connectivity to IronWiFi's cloud endpoints on ports 1812/1813 (UDP).
