Nothing that stops you from operating an industry standard RADIUS server infrastructure, and extend it with any kind of 2FA or MFA solution. There is no change required on the RADIUS side of APs. switches. or routers. Just an extended MFA capable supplicant on your workstations, mobile devices.
The only question to Netgear is on how to enable RADIUS based authentication for the device administration - ideally based on a user group (instead of the hard coded "admin" username) 8-)
