What's the difference between proxy and replicate? I mean, i think i know what it is, but i'm not sure: - replicate means, rebuild the request and send it to the authentication Radius server; the authentication server sees the request as coming from the original NAS (and therefore might apply its own authorisation rules based on IPs) - proxy means, strip the request from every refference to the initial IP of the NAS, and send it to the authentication Radius server; the authentication server sees all proxied requests as coming from the FreeRadius machine (thinks FreeRadius is the NAS)
Is that correct? If there is such a difference, how do i trigger one or the other behaviour? I ask this because i need to trick my authentication Radius servers into thinking that the original source of all requests are the Radius proxies. My authentication servers need to know nothing about the IP addresses of the NASes (i need to "hide" the NAS from the authentication server, using a proxy, and do all IP-based authorisation in the proxies).
