Mideye Authentication: RADIUS, SAML & OIDC Basics

Mideye’s on-premises multi-factor authentication (MFA) relies on foundational protocols like RADIUS, SAML, OIDC, and PKI. This section covers the fundamental technologies and protocols that Mideye Server builds upon. Understanding these concepts helps you implement integrations correctly, troubleshoot authentication issues effectively, and make informed architecture decisions.

Core Authentication Protocols & Technologies

• RADIUS Protocol — How RADIUS authentication works, challenge-response flows, and MSCHAPv2/EAP
• Identity Protocols — SAML, OIDC, and modern authentication patterns
• Push Delivery — How push notifications work (APNs, FCM)
• Certificates — PKI basics, certificate chains, formats (PEM, PFX, DER)

These pages provide vendor-neutral knowledge that applies even outside of Mideye — use them as reference material when working with integrations or troubleshooting authentication flows.
