Shared Secret Question
Is RADIUS encryption/validation good enough?
Primary threat is dictionary attack
Attacker must have layer 2 traffic visibility

Yes, if you use a strong shared secret
More so if you use IPsec
Proper network hygiene helps
In practice:
Security police cannot force strong shared secrets to be used
IPsec introduces its own kind of nightmare
