Release Notes: Some significant new features were added, and a number of bugs were fixed. New features include support for EAP-PWD as per RFC 5931, a new AuthBy RATELIMIT module which can be used to limit the maximum number of requests per second that will be served.

Radiator is fantastic.
Having worked with Radiator for over 8 years I can only reiterate all of the positive comments about this product that have been made before me.
Flexible, powerful, scalable and extensive.
I had a recent problem with tacacs functionality and I was delivered a patch within 12 hours - what a turnaround and unheard of with any other product.
Note that this is the only time I have found a bug. Normally I am seeking support to help me to understand alternatives and options that I have not yet explored.
A great product with very responsive support.
Keep up the great work.
The Radiator team does it right; excellent software, clear documentation, and top-notch support all at a sane price. This is how for-profit software should work and differentiate from freeware. Well done!
After 8 years working with Radiator, I´ve to say I haven´t seen an AAA scenario that it can´t handle:
- High performance: lots of auth/acct requests per second with proxy_radius/server_radius architecture and server farm capabilities.
- Integration of multiple ISPs with different requirements on international roaming scenarios: security, pap, chap, radius attributes manipulation, per-ISP radius health checks, etc.
- Radius over tcp or sctp (Radsec).... what to say: if you have to communicate Radius proxies through the Internet, you would love to have some security and reliability.
- Disclosure services: it is always a pain to handle several gigabytes of logs, but Radiator helps a lot with this.... different formats and details of logs, storage in local files, syslog, databases... or just modify the logs on real time before storing it.
- Easily customizable: Radiator let you add perl code in a smart way, without reducing the platform performance.
- Great debug logs and statistics for troubleshooting and performance analysis.
- Development: just have a look to the releases history... the Radiator guys don't stop making their software compatible with the lastest technology.
- Having a professional support is also critical for my company.
After 12 years of development, Radiator is for me the best Radius server. Not free, but value for money for sure.
Radiator is second to none when it comes to RADIUS servers, period. Of all the Radius Servers i ever evaluated (FreeRADIUS, Steel-Belted Radius, IIAS, and much more), Radiator quickly turned out to be the best. Radiator runs on almost every OS known to man (or at least everywhere perl runs :D), is easy and fast to configure and extremely well documented, and there are boatloads of plugins for almost every intended purpose.
keep up the good work guys!
Best RADIUS Server
Radiator is incredibly flexible and complete. Very stable product with support for a wide range of authentication types. I would highly recommend Radiator to anyone looking to implement a RADIUS solution.
