Every pillar of AAA,
engineered for ISP scale

From single-NAS deployments to multi-region carrier networks, RADIX handles the full authentication lifecycle without compromise.

High-Throughput Authentication
Process over 1.2 million Access-Request packets per second per node. Clustered deployments scale linearly — add nodes, multiply capacity. EAP-TLS, PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAPv2 supported natively.
🛡
Granular Authorization Policies
Define bandwidth profiles, CoA rules, and service tiers through a visual policy engine. Push dynamic VSAs to any NAS vendor in real time — no config file editing required.
📊
Precision Accounting
Capture and stream Acct-Start, Interim-Update, and Acct-Stop records with nanosecond timestamps. Native export to Kafka, S3, and your billing platform of choice.
🔁
Active-Active HA Clustering
Zero single points of failure. RADIX clusters share session state across nodes using a distributed in-memory store. Failover completes in under 50ms, invisible to subscribers.
🗄
Flexible Backend Connectors
Authenticate against LDAP, Active Directory, PostgreSQL, MySQL, REST APIs, or RADIX's own embedded subscriber store. Chain multiple backends with waterfall or parallel lookup modes.
🔍
Live Session Visibility
Query active sessions, force disconnects, and modify bandwidth mid-session through the RADIX API or dashboard. Full audit trail for every CoA and PoD sent.

RADIUS done right, at every hop

RADIX speaks the full RADIUS dialect — standard attributes, VSAs, EAP tunnels, and CoA/PoD — with full RFC compliance and carrier-hardened reliability.

01
NAS sends Access-Request
Your BNG, BRAS, or PPPoE concentrator forwards credentials to RADIX over UDP 1812. RADIX validates the shared secret and queues the packet for processing in under 1ms.
02
Policy engine evaluates
Subscriber identity is checked against configured backends. Policies are applied: bandwidth caps, VLAN assignment, session timeout, and any vendor-specific attributes for your NAS.
03
Access-Accept with attributes
RADIX returns an Access-Accept packet bearing all relevant reply attributes. The NAS brings the subscriber online within milliseconds.
04
Accounting + live control
Acct-Start triggers session recording. Your NOC can issue CoA mid-session to change tier, or PoD to force reconnect — all via API or dashboard in real time.

Fits your stack, day one

RADIX connects to the NAS vendors, billing systems, and data stores your network already runs on — no rip-and-replace required.
