What does the authentication service do?

Excerpt
The authentication service handles authentication of users accessing resources. The authentication service supports several authentication methods.

The authentication service may also use proxy authentication requests to an authentication server using third-party authentication methods. In this case, you configure a RADIUS back-end server as an authentication server.

An authentication service was added and configured during the set up setup of Hybrid Digital Access Gateway.
