radiusd_radius —
provide authentication from upstream RADIUS
servers
The radiusd_radius utility is executed by
radiusd(8) as a module to
provide authentication from upstream RADIUS servers.
The radiusd_radius supports the following
configuration key and value:
server
address[:port]
- Specify the upstream server's address and port. If
port is omitted, 1812 is used. This configuration
can be specified multiple times.
secret
secret
- Specify the shared secret with the servers. This configuration cannot be
omitted.
max-tries
number
- Specify the maximum number of retransmissions for a server.
radiusd(8) will retransmit 2,
6, 14, 22, and 30 seconds after the first transmission and subsequent
retransmissions will occur every 8 seconds. If the number of
retransmissions per server reaches this value, the current server is
marked as “fail”, and the next server is used for subsequent
requests. The default value is 3.
max-failovers
number
- If a positive number is specified,
radiusd(8) will failover to
the next server when the current server is marked “fail”.
This key and value specifies the maximum number of failovers. The default
value is 0.
request-timeout
sec
- Specify the request timeout in seconds. If this value is specified,
max-tries and max-failover
will not be used.
- /usr/libexec/radiusd/radiusd_radius
- “radius” module executable.
The radiusd_radius module first appeared
in OpenBSD 5.8.
