Greetings all..
Overview
Our local network folks have a FirePass VPN to allow external access to an application.
We are needing to setup a Radius server to authenticate
to the FirePass VPN appliance.
Testing.
I have FreeRadius 1.1.7 set up on a zone on a Solaris 10 box and have begun testing.. This zone will only do this one task.. (Packages installed from SunFreeware - Blastwave FreeRadius package is 1.01)
- Going through the output from /local/sbin/radiusd -X
- Tested with
radtest test test localhost 0 testing123
One error - Although this might be normal
Output
Sending Access-Request of id 169 to 127.0.0.1 port 1812
User-Name = "test"
User-Password = "test"
NAS-IP-Address = 255.255.255.255
NAS-Port = 0
rad_recv: Access-Reject packet from host 127.0.0.1:1812, id=169, length=20
---------------
I am also reading the entire radiusd.conf file to get familiar with the settings.
Per the FAQ it *looks* like I need to use CHAP for authentication but have currently not gotten any farther than
that.
Sent an email to F5 (makers of FirePass) requesting information as to what protocol the "Radius" setting is expecting..
If anyone has any input if this combination will work,
