Hello guys.....

Recent now i had started taking keen interest in kamailio.

I was testing kamailio, and i had test it under two scenario.
first of all let me tell u about my configuration.
I am testing on normal Desktop pc, installed kamailio,mysql, radius
everything on same pc.

I am using MYSQL anyway for both sort of testing.
When i test with radius authentication, means using radius_www_authorize
at max i am getting around 500 cps for Registration, but when i use normal
www_authorize i am getting around 2000 CPS....

whopping difference guys.....

So, i was wondering what is merits and demerits of not using Radius based
authentication.
Is it insecure if i use normal Authentication?
Its not in my knowledge that radius do encryption...so i dont think by
using radius it provides more security.
What is your opinions about it?
