Radius

Introduction

This package is based on the libradius (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) of FreeBSD. It allows clients to perform authentication and accounting by means of network requests to remote servers.

This PECL extension adds full support for Radius Authentication (» RFC 2865) and Radius Accounting (» RFC 2866). This package is available for Unix (tested on FreeBSD and Linux) and for Windows.

Note:
An exact description for libradius can be found » here. A detailed description of the configuration file can be found » here.
