Re: [EXT] Using netbox as a backend for FreeRADIUS

It's a limitation of HTTP/1.1. You need a connection for each HTTP request in flight.

The rlm_rest module in v4 supports HTTP/2.0, so it can multiplex (run multiple requests over the same TCP connection simultaneously).

The v4 module is also fully asynchronous, and uses a slab allocator for handles to minimise runtime memory allocations. It's about as good as it gets for a libcurl based implementation.

On the commercial side (InkBridge), we've also integrated Netbox to do static IP assignment for our LDAP subscriber management API, it's very nice :)

Hi, can you tell a bit more about this? Rainer
