Do you mean hostapd? I'm not aware of any builtin kernel/modules doing AP stuff.

Right, hostapd. It has the radius functionality builtin you'd need for proper wifi enterprise functionality

FWIW one can front-end OpenLDAP or AD with Radius. Once the translation layer is in place then it's more about teaching IT how to manage particular fields in LDAP/AD.
