Single Answer

Which one of the following protocols is commonly used to provide back-end authentication services for a VPN?

Answer Options

A

HTTPS

B

RADIUS

C

ESP

D

AH

Correct Answer: B

Explanation

The Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) protocol was originally designed to support dial-up modem connections but is still commonly used for VPN-based authentication. HTTPS is not an authentication protocol. ESP and AH are IPsec protocols but do not provide general authentication services for other systems.
