We have a similar setup... about the same number of APs and users, more
online simultaneously. And, we're enforcing PEAP reauths every 15 minutes.
We're running 2 Dell Poweredge 650s, each with a single 2.4GHz P4, 512MB
RAM, single 40GB hard drive in failover. The first 650 takes the brunt
of the auth traffic, but, since RADIUS and even EAP-TLS is really low
overhead, those servers hardly ever see a load average of .1 unless I'm
doing something like compiling a new version of the FR code.

We're going to be setting up a freeRADIUS server to service around 400
simultaneous connections. (500 AP's, 4000 users, about 400 online at
once) Accounting info would be on another different server.(Not part of
FreeRADIUS)
What's a good server for this? What's more important? Memory or CPU?
I was thinking a dell poweredge 750, 2.8Ghz, 1Gig of RAM, 73G drive.
