Free radius 21 software for linux

mysqlRadius is the world favorite Cistron 1.6.6 (and other) radius server manager. mysqlRadius can manage 1 or 100 RADIUS servers without a hiccup including redundant backup servers that transparently provide mysql accounting data via mysqlRadacct aux application.

Our mysqlISP component systems focus is on a very stable telco quality ISP services via static configuration of servers from mySQL, but with mySQL not required to be live.

FreeRADIUS is the premiere open source RADIUS server. While detailed statistics are not available, we believe that FreeRADIUS is well within the top 5 RADIUS servers world-wide, in terms of the number of people who use it daily for authentication.
FreeRADIUS project scales from embedded systems with small amounts of memory, to systems with millions of users. It is fast, flexible, configurable, and supports more authentication protocols than many commercial servers.
The FreeRADIUS Server Project encompasses more than just a RADIUS server. The related software includes a PAM authentication module, and an Apache 1.3 and 2.0 authentication module. The server comes with a PHP-based web user administration tool, called dialupadmin.
The RADIUS server has more features and is more flexible than any other free software RADIUS server, and many commercial servers. Most commercial servers are distributed as a "base" system ($), and an "enhanced" version ($$) with more features. FreeRADIUS has all the features of a commercial "enhanced" server, without the associated cost.
In it simplest form, the server is similar to Livingstons 2.0 server. Many configuration files are similar, and the general operation of the server should be familiar to anyone who has used a variant of the Livingston server.
FreeRADIUS can be extended significantly from this simple form, however. There are many modules and configuration files which have no equivalent in older RADIUS servers. These new features permit FreeRADIUS to work within complex systems, and environments which require high performance.
To support the demanding requirements of a modern RADIUS server, FreeRADIUS features more than 50 vendor-specific dictionary files. It ships with support for LDAP, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle databases. It supports EAP, with EAP-MD5, EAP-SIM, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, EAP-PEAP, and Cisco LEAP sub-types.
It supports proxying, with fail-over and load balancing. It has reached a stable 1.0 release, with incremental improvements being added and tested daily. In short, it is a powerful, fast, and complex RADIUS server which is compatible with the latest network protocols and practices, and is well suited for deployment in any size network.
Enhancements:
- A few dictionaries have been added.
- Several bugs have been fixed, including some double frees that were found in 1.1.5.
- Nearly 30 bugs found by Coverity were also fixed, including a memory leak in the EAP-TTLS code.

mysqlRadiusd project is a MySQL driven RADIUS daemon.

mysqlRadiusd is a RADIUS daemon based on the 1.6.6 Cistron distribution and the mySQL patches that has been modified for use with the mysqlISP GPL ISP management software system.

It is very stable and can handle large ISPs easily while pumping mass accounting records into mysqlRadacct subsystem at a tremendous rate from even multi-server clusters.

Radical is a simple Radius packet decoder to assist in the debugging of Radius sessions.
It accepts the output of the Solaris snoop(1M) command and it is written in Python. language.

radclass is a PHP4 class that handles the administration of multiple IC-Radius servers.

radclass can add, delete, and update users and groups on foreign radius hosts, and it can modify their check items. radclass was designed in the PHP4 OO model to be a portable solution.

raddump interprets captured RADIUS packets to print a timestamp, packet length, RADIUS packet type, source and destination hosts and ports, and included attribute names and values for each packet.
Enhancements:
- Added support for IEEE 802.1q tagged VLAN frames.

RADIUS::Dictionary is a RADIUS dictionary parser.

SYNOPSIS

use RADIUS::Dictionary;

my $dict = new RADIUS::Dictionary "/etc/radius/dictionary";
$dict->readdict("/some/other/file");
my $num = $dict->attr_num(User-Name);
my $name = $dict->attr_name(1);

This is a simple module that reads a RADIUS dictionary file and parses it, allowing conversion between dictionary names and numbers.

METHODS

new

Returns a new instance of a RADIUS::Dictionary object. If given an (optional) filename, it calls readdict for you.

->readdict

Parses a dictionary file and learns the namenumber mappings.

->attr_num($attrname)

Returns the number of the named attribute.

->attr_type($attrname)

Returns the type (string, integer, ipaddr, or time) of the named attribute.

->attr_name($attrnum)

Returns the name of the attribute with the given number.

->attr_numtype($attrnum)

Returns the type of the attribute with the given number.

->attr_has_val($attrnum)

Returns a true or false value, depending on whether or not the numbered attribute has any known value constants.

->val_has_name($attrnum)

Alternate (bad) name for attr_has_val.

->val_num($attrnum, $valname)

Returns the number of the named value for the attribute number supplied.

->val_name

Returns the name of the numbered value for the attribute number supplied.
