Please help me if you can. I need some data about Freeradius hardware "requirements".
Any commodity system will be fine.
This is for a project I'm working on and I need to establish a minimum hardware requirements for a radius server (Freeradius 2.0.5) that will serve about 3000 users, and will be used as authentication and authorization server for some wireless AP's and 802.1x switches.
Any commodity system will be fine.
It's expected that users will massively login (400 or more) at certain time and after that re-authentication will happen every 6 or 10 mn, for 802.1x clients.
"Massive login" at 400 users? There are ISP's with 10M users running FreeRADIUS. When a dial-up POP reboots, 30k users log in in 30s. FreeRADIUS handles this fine.
Also I have some doubts about were to store user info, sql DB (postgres maybe) or LDAP. What would it be the better solution, in terms of performance.
PostGreSQL would be my choice. Alan DeKok.
