  Hi,
  
  Windows Server 2016 Datacenter Edition
  With NPS in Windows Server 2016 Datacenter, you can configure an unlimited number of RADIUS clients and remote RADIUS server groups. In addition, you can configure RADIUS clients by specifying an IP address range.
  
  Windows Server 2016 Standard Edition
  With NPS in Windows Server 2016 Standard, you can configure a maximum of 50 RADIUS clients and a maximum of 2 remote RADIUS server groups. You can define a RADIUS client by using a fully qualified domain name or an IP address, but you cannot define groups of RADIUS clients by specifying an IP address range. If the fully qualified domain name of a RADIUS client resolves to multiple IP addresses, the NPS server uses the first IP address returned in the Domain Name System (DNS) query.

  Hi all,

  would be nice if somebody could confirm whether the new information quoted by Dnweng is correct.

  I thought the 50 client limit were gone with 2012 already.

  Hi Armit, is it possible that the barrier of 50 per Windows Standard was removed some weeks ago - for e.g. with 1803. Microsoft speak about unlimited in Datacenter and Standard Edition.
