What is RADIUS?
RADIUS is a server-based method to control who can connect to your Wi-Fi network. It can help you check your users in automatically in Nexudus when they log in to your network.
How the RADIUS Integration Works
You need a controller that's within the supported controller list in IronWiFi: https://www.ironwifi.com/list-of-supported-vendors
Before you configure your controller, you also need a RADIUS server license. You need a RADIUS server license for each Wi-Fi access point you plan on having in your space. Nexudus can get a license for you at a discounted price of $/£/€6 per access point/per month. Just get in touch with us at support@nexudus.com to request a license, making sure you include the name of your controller vendor.
Each license comes with two geographically redundant servers for RADIUS Authentication and RADIUS Accounting. We create these as close as possible to your physical location based on the data centers we have available.
Once you have your license, set up your controller and enable the integration in Nexudus.
For more information, check out Integrating RADIUS.
The instructions we provide are guidelines to help you connect your network and Nexudus aimed at professionals with experience setting up server-based Wi-Fi networks.
