hello,
I wonder if anyone can offer any help or advice....
I need to merge 3 separate Radius systems (post-acquisition fun), and wish to ideally
achieve this without the use of huntgroups/realms and separate radiusd instances.
We have 3 separate dialup access numbers - one for each ISP. We are therefore able to
determine which ISP the customer has called via the Called-Station-Id attribute
received from the Terminal server. For non-technical reasons the telco will map all
three numbers to the same physical circuits - so the use of freeradius' huntgroups
will not be possible.
I want to be able to rewrite the username and/or additional attributes on any incoming
packet, so that we can:
1 receive incoming packet
2 'preprocess' packet:
* Check Call-Station-Id.
* Mangle User-Name attribute, and/or insert additional attributes according to
Call-Station-Id
3 continue processing mangled packet
I've investigated the use of attr_rewrite module, but I'm not sure if I understand
it's use correctly...
(radiusd.conf)
# Also if new_attribute is set to yes then a new attribute
# will be created containing the value replace with and it
# will be added to searchin (packet, reply or config).
...so how do I choose the name of the 'new_attribute' that will be created? Surely, if
I'm able to set it's value, I must be able to assign it's name....? Is there any way
this module can be used to 'test one attribute - to mangle another'? or perhaps
there's another way to achieve this...? The docs for default modules seem to be pretty
light...
Any help much apreciated,
Spencer
