For these types of transactions, a device or user sends a network access request, which is<br />

sent to a Network Access Server (NAS). The NAS (e.g. a ZoneDirector) sends the client<br />

request to the <strong>RADIUS</strong> server as part of a special message called Access-Request. This<br />

request includes the user credentials as well as other information the NAS may know about<br />

the user such as 802.11 radio type, AP, etc.<br />

The <strong>RADIUS</strong> server verifies the information and returns one of three responses: Access-<br />

Accept, Access-Reject or Access-Challenge.<br />
