Authentication, Athorization and Accounting (AAA)

His suggestion was to use a central, separate server for these three tasks. This would mean that all your usernames and passwords would be kept in the same place. This is called a RADIUS server. These servers also have powerful solutions for mass credential change etc.

There are several open source RADIUS solutions available for Linux for example.

Hi There, we have started to implement Radius on the network lately, I’ll see if we can incorporate AAA.

Thanks again,

Nikki
