Download GNU Radius 1.6

Radius can be used to grant access to the network to authenticate users. This is an aaa protocol, which is used by many ISPs and network administrators. GNU Radius is an open source implementation that runs on most Linux and *nix machines. The developers released version 1.6 a few days ago and provided the following list of changes:

Version 1.6:

• Configuration file raddb/config
  The syslog statement takes an optional 4th argument specifying syslog tag to use, eg:
  channel default {
  syslog local1.info radiusd;
  };
• New attributes:
  • GNU-Server-Address
    Holds IP address of the RADIUS server that received the request. Notice, that the value of this attribute is “0.0.0.0” if there are no `listen’ statement in your `raddb/config’.
  • GNU Server Port
    Holds UDP port number of the RADIUS server that received the request.
• Automake function AM_GNU_RADIUS is provided, for checking if GNU Radius is installed from configure.ac scripts.
• Guile support requires Gule version 1.8 or later.
• Bug fixes:
  • Pass NAS-IP-Address to mlc_stop_query
