SNMP support for remote monitoring is a handy option; we tracked the standard statistics, like accepts, rejects, declines, accounting starts and stops. RadiusNT also uses SNMP concurrency checking to prevent incorrect denials. Security features include keeping track of duplicate auth request and use of SSL certificates to maintain the integrity of LDAP communications.

Why do you need an enterprise RADIUS server? The proliferation of NAS devices and your users' need to stay connected over multiple links make administering a single database that will verify a user's credentials, apply permissions and restrictions, and track the user's access to network resources the only way to go.
We tested RADIUS server software from Cisco Systems, Funk Software, IEA Software, Interlink Networks and Lucent Technologies in our Syracuse University Real-World Labs®. The software had to be compatible with Active Directory and SecureID, and capable of working in multiple connectivity scenarios. In our tests, we also examined standards compliance and interoperability, configuration management, security and policy management, reporting capabilities, advanced features, cost and performance.

AI may force enterprises to rewire parts of their data centers so they are fully optimized to run such workloads. The question is do you use Ethernet or InfiniBand?
