Active Directory Domain Services + RADIUS

We are currently using Azure Active Directory Domain Services, without using and Domain Controllers.

We are also using a Meraki WIFI solution and that has previously been using RADIUS to authenticate with a legacy domain. As our new user accounts are not in the legacy domain and only appear within Azure AD, we need to get the Meraki RADIUS redirected to Azure.

My question is that in order to get RADIUS setup within Azure, do we need to create a Domain Controller server and if we do create one, can we continue to manager acconts in the same way from Azure or will this then need to be done on the DC?

    Hi @

    I found this article https://apicli.com/2021/12/13/meraki-mr-802-1x-with-azure-active-directory/

    And found this threat in a Meraki forum https://community.meraki.com/t5/Wireless-LAN/Azure-AD-authentication-on-Meraki-WiFi/m-p/50285

    Hope this helps,
