Steel-Belted Radius is a powerful RADIUS server that manages and secures WLAN, remote/VPN, and wired 802.1X (role-based) access. It lets network managers enforce a uniform security policy across all users, regardless of access method. "Our RADIUS servers Odyssey Server and Steel-Belted Radius meet the access control and policy-enforcement requirements of enterprises small and large," said Funk Software vice president Joe Ryan.
