Re: firewall

Hi,

Is that because freeradius is kind of like apache, as in that only certain ips' are allowed to hit the freeradius server? So it is pretty secure as soon as you install it right?

unless you have a firewall in place then anything could talk UDP to ports 1812, 1813 and 1814 - but then if their IP isnt known as a client...and their secrets dont match, the server rejects them that said, best practice says only open ports to systems you want talking to you - otherwise some fool could write a nice little program that constantly hammers your RADIUS UDP ports and DoS's you alan
