7.6 SQL Authentication Type

Setting Auth-Type = SQL or Auth-Type = Mysql in the LHS of a `users' entry is a synonym for

Auth-Type = Crypt-Local, Password-Location = SQL

and is provided as a shortcut and for backward compatibility with previous versions of GNU Radius.

For description of SQL authentication, see 7.4 Encrypted Password Authentication Type. The configuration of SQL subsystem is described in 5.11 SQL Configuration -- `raddb/sqlserver'.
