A: Following on from the above question: between zero and a lot. If you have a spare piece of hardware, or can create a VM at no cost then installing a linux variant and FreeRADIUS would cost nothing. As would adding the ORPS capability to an existing RADIUS configuration. If you have to buy hardware then £500-1000 should cover the cost of a suitable Dell server. If you want to purchase RADIUS software such as Clearpass then you'll have to talk to a reseller as the licences can be complex. Even a reasonably sized hospital ought to be able have something for under £5,000 though. The final costs with depend on a number of factors which are site specific. | A: Following on from the above question: between zero and a lot.
