Packet Types

At this point, we have covered the structure of the packets RADIUS uses to transmit data. But what do these packets do? There are four RADIUS packet types that are relevant to the authentication and authorization phases of the AAA transaction:

Access-Request
Access-Accept
Access-Reject
Access-Challenge

While the accounting packet types are covered in detail in Chapter 4, the next section will step through these packets and detail their intent, format, and structure.
