| PRADIUS_EXTENSION_FREE_ATTRIBUTES The RadiusExtensionFreeAttributes function is an application-defined function and is called by NPS to free the memory occupied by attributes returned by RadiusExtensionProcessEx. |
| PRADIUS_EXTENSION_INIT The RadiusExtensionInit function is an application-defined function and is called by NPS while the service is starting up. Use RadiusExtensionInit to perform any initialization operations for the Extension DLL. |

| RemoveAll The RemoveAll method removes all the items from the collection. |
| ResetProperty The ResetProperty method resets the specified property to its default value. |

| StartService The StartService method starts the service administered through SDO. |
| StopService The StopService method shuts down the service administered through SDO. |
Interfaces

| RADIUS_ATTRIBUTE The RADIUS_ATTRIBUTE structure represents a RADIUS attribute or an extended attribute. |
| RADIUS_ATTRIBUTE_ARRAY The RADIUS_ATTRIBUTE_ARRAY structure represents an array of attributes. |
| RADIUS_EXTENSION_CONTROL_BLOCK The RADIUS_EXTENSION_CONTROL_BLOCK structure provides information about the current RADIUS request. It also provides functions for obtaining the attributes associated with the request, and for setting the disposition of the request. |
| RADIUS_VSA_FORMAT The RADIUS_VSA_FORMAT structure represents the format of the string portion of a RADIUS vendor-specific attribute. |
