Certain services, for example Wireless LAN access points, can authenticate against a Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) server.

Ideally, the RADIUS service should be integrated with your IPA service. One popular implementation of the RADIUS protocol is FreeRADIUS. A proper integration is on the FreeIPA roadmap, but can be attempted anyway. Quoting Ryan Skorstad:

 I was able to get the radius server included with IPA operational by:
 
 1.  Installing the 'freeradius-ldap' rpm from yum
 2.  chmod 775 /etc/raddb/certs (so radiusd can write cert files)
 
 3. Change your 'authorize' and 'authenticate' sections of /etc/raddb/radiusd.conf to:
 
 authorize {
       ldap
 }
 authenticate {
       Auth-Type LDAP {
               ldap
       }
}
 
 The radius server will now authenticate users against IPA's LDAP directory.
 
 I have not tested this configuration extensively, I have only verified that it returned Access-Accept
 for a valid user/pass/secret and Access-Reject for a bad user/pass/secret.
