Any radius based auth works well I've used a solution by secure envoy I the past which seems to work well they also have soft token apps, hard tokens plus SMS based.
However, a cautionary note there is that RADIUS protocol itself uses only weak cryptography and is not secure on the wire. That is, in the absence of AES Keywrap proprietary extension Or when the method of credential used is not authentication using a Client-side Certificate (PKI) as in *EAP. Specifically: if RADIUS is used for the Authentication stage of AAA with a code sent by SMS or OATH token [User types Normal password + One Time Password], then when traffic between RADIUS server and VPN device is captured: The user credentials may be exposed with the extremely weak crypto protection RADIUS or NTLM provides for the user password. If a user re-uses their same password somewhere else on a device not requiring 2FA, then capturing RADIUS traffic could be an effective privilege escalation By copying victim's password from a sniffed RADIUS exchange. -- -JH
