1 START:
2 *.+AUTHEN.ACK PREPROC Preauth
3 *.+AUTHENTICATE.ACK PREPROC Preauth
4 Preauth:
5 *.PREPROC.ACK iaaaUsers UsersCheck
6 *.PREPROC.NAK REPLY Hold
7 . . .
Lines 1-3
*.+AUTHEN.ACK or +AUTHENTICATE.ACK indicates that the received
message is an Access-Request. PREPROC indicates the action, which
calls the custom PREPROC software module. PREPROC is programmed
to parse User-Name, strip out the extraneous information, and assign
the result to the User-Id attribute. (The server uses User-Id to locate a
stored user profile.) If PREPROC is successful it returns an ACK event
name; otherwise, it returns a NAK. Preauth indicates the next state the
FSM must proceed to, after PREPROC returns an ACK or NAK event name.
Line 4
As described for steps 1 to 3, Preauth is the next state after PREPROC
has parsed User-Name and returned an ACK or NAK value.
Line 5
If PREPROC returns an ACK value, handling of the request continues
normally with the modified user name.
Line 6
If PREPROC returns a NAK value, the request will be rejected.
NOTE: When listing an event, you need to specify the last action only if it is required
for the finite state table to correctly determine the next action. In this case, the Preauth
events *.*.ACK and *.*.NAK on lines 5 and 6 would also work.
Interim Logging
To indicate that a session is still active, the client will send an accounting message at
regular intervals (defined by the client) during the session. To generate session logs
when the server receives this accounting message, you need to modify one line in the
AACTlog state. The following example uses the default radius.fsm FSM file.
*.*.ACCT_ALIVE LOG REPLYHold
The REPLY action has been replaced with LOG, which is the Action that writes the
session log. If you want to log other accounting messages, you must change the action
to LOG for the event that corresponds to the message that must be logged.
NOTE: A AAA Server-provided state table, logall.fsm, will log all accounting
messages.
Custom Logging Format
Using a custom-logging format requires that you write or obtain a plug-in that will
generate a session log. In each instance when you want to use your custom format, you
must replace the LOG action in the state table with the name of the appropriate action
