Introduction

FreeRADIUS is a high-performance modular RADIUS server, supporting PAP, CHAP, EAP (including EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, EAP-PEAP with EAP-MSCHAP) and a very flexible configuration model, including conditional request processing, querying of LDAP and SQL databases, execution of external scripts and more.

FreeRADIUS uses a thread pool to serve requests. Each request is processed synchronously, and processing passes through a series of stages, and a list of modules in each stage.
