proxy implementation

Hi Matthew,

I have to run proxy radius on same host and run multiple home servers on
same host (for a poc that we are trying).

So Proxy has to be a plain proxy to auth+acct request and forwards it to
home servers.

Since Home servers are running on same host, we have to change the default
port for each home server radius.

 sites-enabled/default - is has authentic, authorization and accounting
block, apart from post_proxy and pre_proxy blocks.
There is no info on changing the default port from 1812 (and 1813) to
different one.

1) I am installing new freeradius setup for proxy and going to modify only
proxy.conf and then modifying sites-enabled/default
and sites-enabled/inner-tunnel.

the current running Radius stack (connect to NAS directly) has to be
modified to listen different ports from default ports (1812/13).



Regards,
Srithar
