This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for support & maintenance.
Cloud FreeRADIUS Server on AWS with daloRADIUS GUI. FreeRADIUS is a high performance and highly configurable multi-protocol policy server, supporting RADIUS, TACACS+ and VMPS. FreeRADIUS allows authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) for a network to be centralized, and minimizes the number of changes that have to be done when adding or deleting new users to a network.
FreeRADIUS can authenticate users on systems such as 802.1x (WiFi), dialup, PPPoE, VPNs, VoIP, and many others. It runs on a back-end database MariaDB/MySQL on EC2 Ubuntu instance. It supports RADIUS Active Directory authentication, AWS Directory Service authentication, and LDAP integration.
