FreeNIBS is a loadable plugin for the FreeRADIUS radius server. FreeNIBS provides authorization, authentication, and accounting for dial-in (PPP/PPPOE/PPTP) users. It can be used for real-time prepaid and postpaid billing. FreeNIBS can bill users based on service accuration, time, traffic, and both time and traffic. FreeNIBS has very flexible settings for groups, users, and prices. All data is stored in SQL databases such as MySQl, PgSQL, and Oracle. License: GNU General Public License v2 Changes:

rlm_acct_unique(5)						 FreeRADIUS Module						rlm_acct_unique(5)

NAME
rlm_acct_unique - FreeRADIUS Module DESCRIPTION
The rlm_acct_unique module creates a unique accounting session Id. Many NAS vendors have their equipment supply an Acct-Session-Id attribute which is not unique over reboots. This makes accounting diffi- cult, as there will be many independent sessions with the same Acct-Session-Id attribute. This module uses the Acct-Session-Id attribute, along with other attributes in the request, to create a more unique session ID, called Acct-Unique-Session-Id. The main configuration items to be aware of are: key A list of the attributes used in calculating an MD5 hash which is used as the value for the unique session id. CONFIGURATION
modules { ... acct_unique { key = "User-Name, Acct-Session-Id, NAS-IP-Address, NAS-Port" } ... } ... preacct { ... acct_unique ... } After generating the MD5 hash, the module adds it to the accounting request packet received from the client. It will look something like this in your detail file: Acct-Unique-Session-Id = "c66ef57e480b9d26" NOTE: Any attribute you specify that is not found in the 'dictionary' file will cause the server to fail and exit with an error. NOTE: If you want the Acct-Unique-Session-Id of the Start and the Stop packet of a particular session to match, you must use values for the key that will stay the same for the Start and Stop. The above example is a good start. Adding 'Acct-Session-Time', for example, would cause a mismatch because that value is not the same on the Start and Stop accounting packets. SECTIONS
