<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div><br></div><div style>I'm looking for some input from the experts to help validate a solution approach that I've come up with. The problem I'm trying to solve is that allow NAS equipment and other RADIUS clients to authenticate users against a proprietary authentication service that uses REST APIs over HTTP.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>The solution that I've put together is to use rlm_perl which allows me to use standard Perl modules to interact with the authentication service. I'm pretty happy with the results so far in that I am able to build exactly what I need and authentication against the webservice works just fine.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>The question to the list, are there other solution approaches that might be better? Any significant disadvantages to using rlm_perl as I've described? Would it be better to write a custom module instead, hoping that by doing so there may be some performance improvements?</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Any input is greatly appreciated.</div><div style><br>Walter Goulet</div></div>
