RadiusRB

A ruby RADIUS client library that supports:

# Lets get authenticated
auth_custom_attr = {
  'Framed-Address'  => '127.0.0.1',
  'NAS-Port'        => 0,
  'NAS-Port-Type'   => 'Ethernet'
}

req = RadiusRB::Request.new('127.0.0.1', { :dict => dict })
reply = req.authenticate('John Doe', 'hello', 'testing123', auth_custom_attr)

if reply[:code] == 'Access-Accept'
  req = RadiusRB::Request.new('127.0.0.1:1813', { :dict => dict })

  acct_custom_attr = {
    'Framed-Address'  => '127.0.0.1',
    'NAS-Port'        => 0,
    'NAS-Port-Type'   => 'Ethernet',
    'Acct-Session-Time' => 0
  }

  timings = Time.now
  reply = req.accounting_start('John Doe', 'testing123', '123456', acct_custom_attr)

  sleep(rand 5)
  acct_custom_attr['Acct-Session-Time'] = Time.now - timings
  reply = req.accounting_update('John Doe', 'testing123', '123456', acct_custom_attr)

  sleep(rand 5)
  acct_custom_attr['Acct-Session-Time'] = Time.now - timings
  reply = req.accounting_stop('John Doe', 'testing123', '123456', acct_custom_attr)
