How RADIUS Authentication Works [Step-by-Step Simplified]

Just like honeybees use scents and behavior patterns to authenticate anything entering their nest, RADIUS authentication ensures that only the right people can get on a network.
RADIUS Authentication (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is one solution for managing Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) in cybersecurity.
In this blackboard lesson, you will learn the intricacies of the RADIUS authentication process - from the time a supplicant first requests access all the way through the end of their session.

Great explanation of "How Radius Authentication Works"

I'm a beekeeper trying to learn some networking concepts. I like your analogy :) Thanks for the video. Nice job with the content.

[@joeobama-ox1ye]

does isp use Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service ?

[@mohammadahmedragab837]

thank you so much

[@SimpleLivingHigherThinking]

Thanks for such simple and clear explanation !!!!!😀

[@chilledxaura]

Cool thanks. Im only studying the A+ right now and can probably skip this, but it’ll be useful to learn some now for later certs.

[@chilledxaura]

Oh hey old me. I got the A+ and am now trying to tackle everything in the Network+. See you at Security+!

[@zeektm1762]

@@chilledxauraHow much stuff about RADIUS or TACACS+ was there?

[@chilledxaura]

@@zeektm1762 I’d say not a lot. Just knowing that they and Kerberos are related to authentication is enough. Knowing the differences between AES/WPA/WPA2 showed up more. Overall Core 2 is not bad. Remember, this is early early foundational stuff. Don’t let it overwhelm you. Pretend this is a 101 class and that there is lots more to come (because there is).

if there are 2 networks one with high network speed and other with low network speed, how can we switch user from the fast to slow network. what is the easiest way to make the switch

[@mohammadghodsi]

Great explanation. Thanks.

I thought the first part was an add and was trying to find the SKIP button. Then I realised I am on Premium.

[@lindsay186]

you do well to explain it all thanks

[@JeffreyHandy]

Thank you for this!

[@creepr524]

You forgot to explain radius disconnect and change of authorization messages

[@jl6693]

almost one minute offtopic intro and then just basic explanation of how authentication works in general, sprinkled at times with the word "radius" to remind me it is about radius.🙃
