eradius

This fork of eradius is a radical deviation from the original Jungerl code. It contains a generic RADIUS client, support for several authentication mechanisms and dynamic configuration (it implements the config_change/3 application callback).

Building eradius

$ rebar3 compile

Using eradius

Eradius requires a certain degree of configuration which is described in the app.src file. Minimal examples of server callbacks can be found in the tests.

Run sample server

$ cd sample
$ rebar3 shell --config example.config --apps eradius_server_sample

Then run a simple benchmark:

1> eradius_server_sample:test().

Metrics

Eradius exposes following metrics via exometer:

• counter and handle time for requests
• counter for responses (this includes acks, naks, accepts etc.)

The measurements are available for client, server and also for the specific NAS callbacks. Further they are exposed in a 'total' fashion but also itemized by request/response type (e.g. access request, accounting response etc.).

It is possible to expose measurements compliant with RFC 2619 and RFC 2621 using the build in metrics.

The handle time metrics are generated internally using histograms. These histograms all have a time span of 60s. The precise metrics are defined in include/eradius_metrics.
