Solution Summary
This guide describes Microsoft NPS integration with RSA ID Plus using RADIUS. Use this information to determine which use case and integration type your deployment will employ.
Use Case
Microsoft NPS can be integrated with RSA using RADIUS. When integrated, users must authenticate with RSA to sign in to Microsoft NPS.
Integration Types
RADIUS integrations provide a text-driven interface for Cloud Authentication Service within the partner application. RADIUS provides support for most Cloud Authentication Service authentication methods and flows.
Supported Features
This section shows all the supported features by integration type and by RSA components. Use this information to determine which integration type and RSA component your deployment will use. The next section in this guide contains the instruction steps for how to integrate RSA with Microsoft NPS using each integration type.
