Real-time monitoring, traffic/usage reports & charts, revenue & sales reports, activity logs, failed-authentication tracking — with filtering, exports and scheduling.

Is RADIUS traffic encrypted?
Web access is HTTPS-encrypted. Standard RADIUS (UDP) is not encrypted by design — deploy a VPN or private link between NAS and server for hostile networks.

Does it guarantee zero downtime?
No platform can — but updates ship via the update channel and license migration reduces recovery time after hardware failure.
