I am thinking of adding a FreeRadius server to an existing infrastructure in order to provision users through an application. I am currently running a WLAN controller connecting several access points. Currently users are added manually through the WLAN controller interface.
Could I add a FreeRadius server and be able to programatically add users to it? I need to be able to do this through a Ruby on Rails application.
Yes.
I am thinking I would have to either:
1. Use some sort of API 2. Run a script that uses a command line interface
No. Much simpler than that. You can store users, passwords and radius attributes for freeradius in a MySQL database. Use Ruby on Rails application to manage user/group entries in the database. Ruby is quite good for that. Ivan Kalik Kalik Informatika ISP
