NPS server installation

Table of contents

Network Policy Server (NPS) is Microsoft's implementation of a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server and proxy in Windows Server 2008. NPS replaces the Internet Authentication Service in Windows 2003.

As a RADIUS server, NPS performs centralized connection authentication, authorization, and account management for many types of network access, including wireless and virtual private (VPN) connections. As a RADIUS proxy, NPS forwards authentication and account management messages to other RADIUS servers. NPS also acts as a Network Access Protection (NAP) health assessment server.
