Overview

This module installs and configures FreeRADIUS server on Linux. It supports FreeRADIUS 3.x only. It was designed with CentOS in mind but should work on other distributions.

This module requires Puppet 4.0.0 or greater. Puppet 3.x was discontinued at the end of 2016.

Module Description

This module installs FreeRADIUS from a distro-provided package and installs a number of customised config files to enable flexibility. It then provides some helpers to allow you to easily configure virtual servers (sites), modules, clients and other config items. Most of these items accept a flat config file which you supply either as a static file or a template - similar to the source and content parameters in Puppet's file resource.

This module is designed to make it more straightforward for RADIUS administrators to deploy RADIUS servers using Puppet. This module does not serve as a wizard and does not avoid having to have an understanding of FreeRADIUS.

Usage

This module provides several classes and defined types which take parameters.

Classes

freeradius

The freeradius class installs the base server. In the early releases, this class does not have many parameters as most values are hard-coded. I am working on parameterising more of the global settings to increase flexibility. Patches are welcome.

control_socket

Use of the control_socket parameter in the freeradius class is deprecated. Use the freeradius::control_socket class instead.

correct_escapes

Use correct backslash escaping in unlang. Default: true

max_requests

The maximum number of requests which the server keeps track of. This should be 256 multiplied by the number of clients. Default: 4096

max_request_time

The maximum time (in seconds) to handle a request. Default: 30

max_servers

Limit on the total number of servers running. Default: 4096

mysql_support

Install support for MySQL. Note this only installs the package. Use freeradius::sql to configure SQL support. Default: false

perl_support

Install support for Perl. Default: false

preserve_mods

Leave recommended stock modules enabled. Default: true

utils_support

Install FreeRADIUS utils. Default: false

ldap_support

Install support for LDAP. Default: false

dhcp_support

Install support for DHCP. Default: false

krb5_support

Install support for Kerberos. Default: false

wpa_supplicant

Install wpa_supplicant utility. Default: false

winbind_support

Add the radius user to the winbind privileged group. You must install winbind separately. Default: false.

log_destination

Configure destination of log messages. Valid values are files, syslog, stdout and stderr. Default: files.

syslog_facility

Configure which syslog facility to use when log_destination is set to syslog. Default: daemon.

syslog

Add a syslog rule (using the saz/rsyslog module). Default: false.

log_auth

Log authentication requests (yes/no). Default: no.

allow_vulnerable_openssl

Allow the server to start with versions of OpenSSL known to have critical vulnerabilities. (yes/no). Default: yes.

package_ensure

Choose whether the package is just installed and left (installed), or updated every Puppet run (latest). Default: installed

class { 'freeradius':
  max_requests    => 4096,
  max_servers     => 4096,
  mysql_support   => true,
  perl_support    => true,
  utils_support   => true,
  wpa_supplicant  => true,
  winbind_support => true,
  syslog          => true,
  log_auth        => 'yes',
}

freeradius::status_server

The freeradius::status_server class enabled the status server. To remove the status server, do not include this class and the server will be removed.

secret

The shared secret for the status server. Required.

port

The port to listen for status requests on. Default: 18121

listen

The address to listen on. Defaults to listen on all addresses but you could set this to $facts['networking]['ip'] or 127.0.0.1. Default: *

  # Enable status server
  class { 'freeradius::status_server':
    port   => '18120',
    secret => 't0pSecret!',
  }

freeradius::control_socket

The freeradius::control_socket class enables the control socket which can be used with RADMIN. To remove the control socket, do not include this class and the socket will be removed.

mode

Whether the control socket should be read-only or read-write. Choose from ro, rw. Default: ro.

  # Enable control socket
  class { 'freeradius::control_socket':
    mode => 'ro',
  }

freeradius::radsniff

The freeradius::radsniff class configures and runs the RADSNIFF service. It requires freeradius-utils to be installed, so will fail if utils_support is not enabled on the freeradius class.

Note: This is only supported on RedHat like systems at present.

options

Command line options to be passed to radsniff. Quotes are escaped

  # Enable radsniff, with a filter, sending data to collectd (requires freeradius to be compiled for this)
  class { 'freeradius::radsniff':
    options => '-m -p1812,1813 -O unix:/var/run/collectd.sock -N freeradius -W 10 -i eth0 -f "src not 192.0.2.1"',
  }

Resources

freeradius::attr

Install arbitrary attribute filters from a flat file. These are installed in an appropriate module config directory. The contents of the attr_filter module are automatically updated to reference the filters.

key

Specify a RADIUS attribute to be the key for this attribute filter. Enter only the string part of the name.

prefix

Specify the prefix for the attribute filter name before the dot, e.g. filter.post_proxy. This is usually set to filter on FR2 and attr_filter on FR3. Default: filter.

freeradius::attr { 'eduroamlocal':
  key    => 'User-Name',
  prefix => 'attr_filter',
  source => 'puppet:///modules/site_freeradius/eduroamlocal',
}
relaxed

Whether the filter removes or copies unmatched attributes, relaxed = no or yes respectively. An undefined value results in no explicit statement, causing the default behaviour of FreeRADIUS equivalent to 'relaxed = no'. Default: undef.

freeradius::blank

Selectively blank certain stock config files that aren't required. This is preferable to deleting them because the package manager will replace certain files next time the package is upgraded, potentially causing unexpected behaviour.

The resource title should be the relative path from the FreeRADIUS config directory to the file(s) you want to blank. You can pass multiple files in an array.

freeradius::blank { 'sites-enabled/default': }

freeradius::blank { [
  'sites-enabled/default',
  'eap.conf',
]: }

freeradius::cert

Install certificates as provided. These are installed in certs. Beware that any certificates not deployed by Puppet will be purged from this directory.

freeradius::cert { 'mycert.pem':
  source => 'puppet:///modules/site_freeradius/mycert.pem',
  type   => 'key',
}
freeradius::cert { 'mycert.pem':
  content => '<your key/cert content here>',
  type    => 'key',
}
type

Set file permissions on the installed certificate differently depending on whether this is a private key or a public certificate. Note that the default is to treat the file as a private key and remove world-readable privileges. Allowable values: cert, key. Default: key.

freeradius::client

Define RADIUS clients as seen in clients.conf

# Single host example
freeradius::client { "wlan-controller01":
  ip        => '192.168.0.1',
  secret    => 'testing123',
  shortname => 'wlc01',
  nastype   => 'other',
  port      => '1645-1646',
  firewall  => true,
}
# Range example
freeradius::client { "wlan-controllers":
  ip        => '192.168.0.0/24',
  secret    => 'testing123',
  shortname => 'wlc01',
  nastype   => 'other',
  port      => '1645-1646',
  firewall  => true,
}
# Huntgroup Example
freeradius::client { "asa01":
  ip         => '192.168.0.1',
  secret     => 'testing123',
  huntgroups => [
    { name       => 'firewall',
      conditions => [ 'NAS-IP-Address == 192.168.0.1' ] },
  ]
}
ip

The IP address of the client or range in CIDR format. For IPv6, use ipv6addr. ip and ip6 are mutually exclusive but one must be supplied. Default: undef.

ip6

The IPv6 address of the client or range in CIDR format. ip and ip6 are mutually exclusive but one must be supplied. Default: undef.

shortname

A short alias that is used in place of the IP address or fully qualified hostname provided in the first line of the section. Defaults to resource name.

secret

The RADIUS shared secret used for communication between the client/NAS and the RADIUS server. Required.

virtual_server

The virtual server that traffic from this client should be sent to. Default: undef.

nastype

The nastype attribute is used to tell the checkrad.pl script which NAS-specific method it should use when checking simultaneous use. See man clients.conf for a list of all options. Default: undef.

proto

Transport protocol used by the client. If unspecified, defaults to "udp", which is the traditional RADIUS transport. Valid values are udp, tcp or * for both of them. Default: undef.

require_message_authenticator

Old-style clients do not send a Message-Authenticator in an Access-Request. RFC 5080 suggests that all clients SHOULD include it in an Access-Request. Valid values are yes and no. Default: no.

login

Login used by checkrad.pl when querying the NAS for simultaneous use. Default: undef.

password

Password used by checkrad.pl when querying the NAS for simultaneous use. Default: undef.

coa_server

A pointer to the home_server_pool OR a home_server section that contains the CoA configuration for this client. Default: undef.

response_window

Response window for proxied packets. Default: undef.

max_connections

Limit the number of simultaneous TCP connections from a client. It is ignored for clients sending UDP traffic. Default: undef.

lifetime

The lifetime, in seconds, of a TCP connection. It is ignored for clients sending UDP traffic. Default: undef.

idle_timeout

The idle timeout, in seconds, of a TCP connection. It is ignored for clients sending UDP traffic. Default: undef.

port

The UDP port that this virtual server should listen on. Leave blank if this client is not tied to a virtual server. Currently the port number is only used to create firewall exceptions and you only need to specify it if you set firewall => true. Use port range syntax as in puppetlabs-firewall. Default: undef.

firewall

Create a firewall exception for this virtual server. If this is set to true, you must also supply port and either ip or ip6. Default: false.

attributes

Array of attributes to assign to this client. Default: empty.

huntgroups

Array of hashes, each hash defines one freeradius::huntgroup. Hash keys are all passed to a new instance of freeradius::huntgroup.

freeradius::config

Install arbitrary config snippets from a flat file. These are installed in mods-config

freeradius::config { 'realm-checks.conf':
  source => 'puppet:///modules/site_freeradius/realm-checks.conf',
}
freeradius::config { 'realm-checks.conf':
  content => template('your_template),
}

freeradius::dictionary

Install custom dictionaries without breaking the default FreeRADIUS dictionary. Custom dictionaries are installed in dictionary.d and automatically included in the global dictionary.

freeradius::dictionary { 'mydict':
  source => 'puppet:///modules/site_freeradius/dictionary.mydict',
}

freeradius::home_server

This section defines a "Home Server" which is another RADIUS server that gets sent proxied requests.

secret

The shared secret use to "encrypt" and "sign" packets between FreeRADIUS and the home server.

type

Home servers can be sent Access-Request packets or Accounting-Request packets. Allowed values are:

  • auth Handles Access-Request packets
  • acct Handles Accounting-Request packets
  • auth+acct Handles Access-Request packets at "port" and Accounting-Request packets at "port + 1"
  • coa Handles CoA-Request and Disconnect-Request packets.

Default: auth

ipaddr

IPv4 address or hostname of the home server. Specify one of ipaddr, ipv6addr or virtual_server

ipv6addr

IPv6 address or hostname of the home server. Specify one of ipaddr, ipv6addr or virtual_server

virtual_server

If you specify a virtual_server here, then requests will be proxied internally to that virtual server. These requests CANNOT be proxied again, however. The intent is to have the local server handle packets when all home servers are dead. Specify one of ipaddr, ipv6addr or virtual_server

port

The port to which packets are sent. Usually 1812 for type "auth", and 1813 for type "acct". Older servers may use 1645 and 1646. Use 3799 for type "coa" Default: 1812

proto

The transport protocol. If unspecified, defaults to "udp", which is the traditional RADIUS transport. It may also be "tcp", in which case TCP will be used to talk to this home server. Default: udp

status_check

Type of check to see if the home_server is dead or alive. Valid values are none, status-server and request. Default: undef.

freeradius::home_server_pool

home_server

An array of one or more home servers (this must be an array even if you only have one home server). The names of the home servers are NOT the hostnames, but the names of the sections. (e.g. home_server foo {...} has name "foo".

Note that ALL home servers listed here have to be of the same type. i.e. they all have to be "auth", or they all have to be "acct", or they all have to be "auth+acct".

type

The type of this pool controls how home servers are chosen.

  • fail-over the request is sent to the first live home server in the list. i.e. If the first home server is marked "dead", the second one is chosen, etc.
  • load-balance the least busy home server is chosen For non-EAP auth methods, and for acct packets, we recommend using "load-balance". It will ensure the highest availability for your network.
  • client-balance the home server is chosen by hashing the source IP address of the packet. This configuration is most useful to do simple load balancing for EAP sessions
  • client-port-balance the home server is chosen by hashing the source IP address and source port of the packet.
  • keyed-balance the home server is chosen by hashing (FNV) the contents of the Load-Balance-Key attribute from the control items.

The default type is fail-over.

virtual_server

A virtual_server may be specified here. If so, the "pre-proxy" and "post-proxy" sections are called when the request is proxied, and when a response is received.

fallback

If ALL home servers are dead, then this "fallback" home server is used. If set, it takes precedence over any realm-based fallback, such as the DEFAULT realm.

For reasons of stability, this home server SHOULD be a virtual server. Otherwise, the fallback may itself be dead!

freeradius::huntgroup

Define a huntgroup given a name and the conditions under which a huntgroup matches a client.

freeradius::huntgroup { 'switchaccess':
  huntgroup  => 'switchaccess',
  conditions => [

  ]
}
huntgroup

freeradius::realm

Define a realm in proxy.conf. Realms point to pools of home servers.

virtual_server

Set this to "proxy" requests internally to a virtual server. The pre-proxy and post-proxy sections are run just as with any other kind of home server. The virtual server then receives the request, and replies, just as with any other packet. Once proxied internally like this, the request CANNOT be proxied internally or externally.

auth_pool

acct_pool

For accounting, the acct_pool configuration item should point to a home_server_pool that was previously defined. All of the home servers in the acct_pool must be of type acct.

pool

If you have a home_server_pool where all of the home servers are of type auth+acct, you can just use the pool configuration item, instead of specifying both auth_pool and acct_pool.

}

freeradius::site

Install a virtual server (a.k.a. site) from a flat file. Sites are installed into sites-available and automatically symlinked into sites-enabled, to ensure compatibility with package managers. Any files in this directory that are not managed by Puppet will be removed.

freeradius::sql

Configure SQL connections. You can define multiple database connections by invoking this resource multiple times. If you are using MySQL, don't forget to also set mysql_support => true in the base freeradius class.

freeradius::sql { 'mydatabase':
  database  => 'mysql',
  server    => '192.168.0.1',
  login     => 'radius',
  password  => 'topsecret',
  radius_db => 'radius',
}
database

Default: undef. Required. Specify which FreeRADIUS database driver to use. Choose one of mysql, mssql, oracle, postgresql

server

Default: localhost. Specify hostname of IP address of the database server.

port

TCP port to connect to the database. Default: 3306.

login

Default: radius. Username to connect to the databae.

password

Default: undef. Required. Password to connect to the database.

radius_db

Default: radius. Name of the database. Normally you should leave this alone. If you are using Oracle then use this instead: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=localhost)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=your_sid))).

num_sql_socks

Default: same as max_servers. Number of sql connections to make to the database server. Setting this to LESS than the number of threads means that some threads may starve, and you will see errors like "No connections available and at max connection limit". Setting this to MORE than the number of threads means that there are more connections than necessary. Leave blank to set it to the same value as the number of threads.

lifetime

Default: 0. Lifetime of an SQL socket. If you are having network issues such as TCP sessions expiring, you may need to set the socket lifetime. If set to non-zero, any open connections will be closed $lifetime seconds after they were first opened.

max_queries

Default: 0. Maximum number of queries used by an SQL socket. If you are having issues with SQL sockets lasting "too long", you can limit the number of queries performed over one socket. After $max_qeuries, the socket will be closed. Use 0 for "no limit".

query_file

query_file has been deprecated - use custom_query_file instead

Default: sql/${database}/dialup.conf. Relative path to the file which contains your SQL queries. By default, points to the dialup.conf specific to your database engine, so leave this blank if you are using stock queries.

If you need to use custom queries, it is recommended that you deploy your query file using freeradius::script to install the file into scripts/custom_dialup.conf and then set query_file to scripts/custom_dialup.conf.

custom_query_file

Default: null. Puppet fileserver path to a file which contains your SQL queries, i.e. dialup.conf. This option is intended to be a replacment for query_file, which requires separate deployment of the file. This option allows you to specify a Puppet-managed custom dialup.conf which is installed and loaded automatically. query_file must be left blank if you use custom_query_file.

acct_table1

If you want both stop and start records logged to the same SQL table, leave this as is. If you want them in different tables, put the start table in $acct_table1 and stop table in $acct_table2. Default : radacct

acct_table2

If you want both stop and start records logged to the same SQL table, leave this as is. If you want them in different tables, put the start table in $acct_table1 and stop table in $acct_table2. Default : radacct

  type       => 'redundant-load-balance',
}

Limitations

This module is targeted at FreeRADIUS 3.x running on CentOS 7. It will not work on FreeRADIUS 2.x. It has not been thoroughly tested on other distributions, but might work. Likely sticking points with other distros are the names of packages, services and file paths.

This module requires Puppet 4 or greater.
