Thank for such good explanation! that has pointed my search.
I have succeed in integration freeradius with freeipa by help of

I additionally defined

everything works fine. now it would be fine to define different admin

But anyway everything works!!! Thanks to all!
1 little question left: what does

Thanks to all! With the setup that I have here you cannot do this. mschapv2 doesn't let you insert vlan tags to the NAS, so as a result you can't do this. The way that cisco access points and other vendors get around this, is that they generally have a wireless controller that does part of the hankshake seperately to the NAS itself. So as a result, they CAN do vlan assignment based on tags in the access-accept packet, but it's a hack. If you want to do vlan assignment without access to cisco specific hardware, you'll need to use something that isn't eap. However, most devices require customer profiles in this scenarios (Windows, ios, osx etc). TTLS for example, cannot be configured on windows out of box, and ios / osx require enterprise deployment profiles iirc. You could always setup multiple SSID's, have them each auth to a different radius service (default, inner-tunnel ... make a new set) Then you can have * wifi -> inner-tunnel * wifi-admin -> inner-tunnel-admin You can define different authentication rules then, because you can specify different requirements for group memberships at this point.

This is for the other direction -- when 2FA tokens are defined in an
external daemon that provides RADIUS interface to check against them.
You don't need this if you want your RADIUS server to perform 2FA checks
against FreeIPA, you want to define it only if your FreeIPA server
should perform Kerberos authentication against that external RADIUS
server.

Hello,
We are setting up our wireless to authenticate against FreeRadius and
FreeIPA. I am looking for any instructions on how to integrate
radius with IPA. We can get them talking via kerberos, but when we
have a wireless client attempt to authenticate against them, the
password gets stripped out and only the username gets passed on,
resulting in a failed logon attempt.
As we have studied the problem we have identified the communication
protocols used by wireless to pass on the user credentials to
radius. Wireless uses EAP as it's primary protocol. We are running
Xirrus wireless APs and from what we can learn, they act only as a
pass through conduit for the client. Ideally we would like them to
speak PEAP TTLS, this would allow kerberos to process from the client
to the IPA server, we are still researching this.
Are there any instructions on how to integrate FreeRadius 3.0.10 with
FreeIPA 3.3.5? Any help would be appreciated.
We see this question asked periodically. What we ask always prior to
answering it is what it would be used for? What authentication
mechanisms RADIUS is supposed to provide to its clients?
FreeRADIUS authenticating against IPA is easy. However, depending on
what authentication mechanisms are required it will be either not
possible to achieve or will definitely degrade security of the setup.
A general approach is to use following setup to use PAP authentication:
1. Installing the 'freeradius-ldap' rpm from yum
2. chmod 775 /etc/raddb/certs (so radiusd can write cert files)
3. Change your 'authorize' and 'authenticate' sections of
/etc/raddb/radiusd.conf to:
authorize {
ldap
}
authenticate {
Auth-Type LDAP {
ldap
}
}
During PAP a plaintext password is passed to the RADIUS server
(encrypted with a weak MD5 shared secret).
When the RADIUS server receives the users plaintext password in the
conventional configuration it simply compares the received password with
the stored password. The issue with IPA is there is no stored plaintext
password to compare to, therefore you cannot use conventional PAP with
IPA.
But FreeRADIUS permits you to do other things with PAP besides just
comparing the received password against the stored password for the
user. You can instruct FreeRADIUS to use what they call an
"authentication oracle", or at the risk of loose terminology to "proxy"
the authentication to another authentication server (not to be confused
with radius proxy where the radius transaction is proxied to another
radius server).
There are two authentication oracles FreeRADIUS can use
* LDAP
* Kerberos
In this scenario the plantext password received by the RADIUS server is
used to authenticate against the oracle. For LDAP it does a simple bind.
For Kerberos it does a kinit. If the authentication succeeds the RADIUS
server ACK's the PAP. The thing to note here is this is still occurring
with PAP but no password comparison is being performed.
There is a third "oracle" FreeRADIUS can utilize, namely Active
Directory, but in this case the protocol is not PAP, the ntlm_auth
helper from Samba is used instead with the RADIUS server communicating
with ntlm_auth which communicates with AD.
The suggestion of using strong passwords is always a good idea. The
password transmission between the client and the radius server only
enjoys weak protection so a strong password is especially important.
Communication between the RADIUS server and it's oracles can be quite
strong and is generally not a concern if things are configured properly.
