Derek, You package is interesting and took me a while to get a handle on, but I understand what you are attempting to do with it. I've been considering the Radius Accounting side of the picture for a while now, and I see that you have some logic in your system to handle some very basic attributes for call accounting. Have you considered expanding them and splitting out the CDR side of the equation into a "cdr_radius" module? It seems to me that just having a basic cdr to radius gateway for accounting would be a logical way to accomplish this. Your code appears to have all of the neccessary elements forming the basis for doing that. -- Vice President of N2Net, a New Age Consulting Service, Inc.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Radius
Yes, I did consider a cdr_radius approach... In fact, that was my original attempt... That approach quickly proved to be problematic for a few reasons: 1) Our radius server does 'live' updates to our client database. ie: call is placed, customer can see the call in progress live. call is completed, the radius server updates the customers account balance. This proved to be a problem since asterisk processed calls that it shouldn't have (ie: call is transfered between multiple call legs or protocols) and this caused trouble with multiple radius entries per call. This is aleviated by having the dial app 'talk' to the cdr app with the cdr userfield, allowing the cdr app the ability to process cdrs for only the originating call leg. 2) Radius accounting is a 2 (or 3) part process... START and STOP records (and possibly ALIVE messages). Having a CDR only solution prevents 'live' monitoring of call procession... something my users have become accustomed to. 3) For my specific application, there was a need to be compatible with our existing prepid/postpaid calling platform, and having asterisk do it in the same manner was desirable. Having the cdr application only does work... but entails more 'back end' work from a billing perspective... such as finding and consolidating cdr for multiple call legs, adjusting account balances (if your radius server does automatic account updates.

I can see why that would be problematic for your particular situation, but it would not be a problem for those using Radius strictly for Accounting reasons. For example if I am using an exiting Radius based Billing System that looks at Source, Dest and Call time to rate and bill the call, this would work perfectly. > 2) Radius accounting is a 2 (or 3) part process...

Yes, but again, in my scenario, this does not matter as all I want to be able to do is to generate billing from the Radius accounting data. ;) > 3) For my specific application, there was a need to be compatible with our > existing prepid/postpaid calling platform, and having asterisk do it in the > same manner was desirable. > > Having the cdr application only does work... but entails more 'back end' > work from a billing perspective... such as finding and consolidating cdr for > multiple call legs, adjusting account balances (if your radius server does > automatic account updates. I would tend to agree, but for a small shop w/ a single PRI or two looking to use Radius Accounting records simply to bill for Long Distance usage, it would not be nearly as complicated. > I'm currently working on a more robust and generic method of handling the > mapping of radius responses to internally used variables... Cool.. I'll wait a bit to see how your stuf matures and develops, but I'm seriously considering writing a cdr_radius module specifically for accounting packets. Please understand that I'm not knocking your code.

At least the digest fiasco you started caused the thread to not connect anyways, but come on, you see us from time to time make examples of stupid actions. Why did you have to be that guy?

How about standardization? If you have 50k accounts in a RADIUS system and you want to provide VOIP services to them as well, it is far easier to maintain to have a RADIUS access method for * than it is to try and keep two sets of practically identical data. In fact, I bet you'd save yourself more time and headache by writing your own * RADIUS implementation than trying to keep two separate sets of data. I bet there is no use for LDAP in your world, either, since it's just another level of complexity that that badass database MySQL can handle trivially. You're probably correct that there is no need for RADIUS in a VOIP-only environment but I don't think this is what Sebastian's asking. Of course I am not asking _you_ to write the RADIUS access library (and I sure hope that Sebastian is not implying the same), but at the same time I implore you to think a little more globally than your own business. I am happy that Vonage is doing good for you and that you've made a name for yourself, but it doesn't mean you're top dog in the VOIP world and know what is and isn't good for Asterisk to the general populace.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Radius on *
I won't agree that RADIUS shouldn't ever have been deployed in a VoIP environment. While it can be argued that RADIUS is not in any way an ideal solution and it can also be argued if it is necessary in a PBX software such as Asterisk, fact is that many IP service providers already have advanced billing systems based on RADIUS in place. As I see it RADIUS does not add another layer of complexity - but instead another layer of abstraction.

I agree with Lars Boegild's arguments for RADIUS. Much VoIP Billing software relies on Radius AAA mechanism. Radius also enables to seamlessly share existing user base for VoIP network too.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Radius on *
An an ISP, I can radius is a very good solution for billing purposes and seems to be the solution which MANY large systems use. No matter how much it might be argued otherwise, it is currently used. Now in reality the only thing stopping radius being used with asterisk is the lack of interface. Yes CDR records can be converted to look and feel like radius stop/accounting records, but the biggest bug overall I have poersonally found is authentication. Currently we use a common flat file for both sip & iax and reload asterisk regularly. It would be much nicer if this could be via a dynamic lookup mechanism (be it radius or other means).

In (I think not only) my opinion database support is something which would be very handy in several environments. I really like the "swiss-army knife"-like features of asterisk and having database support for various types of db would be a big step forward as it would help giving asterisk again more potential users and thus more success and public interest. Imagine having an include-statement in e.g. your sip.conf like db_lookup => (db-type, user:[EMAIL PROTECTED], table, ...) and then being able to serve several thousand users more.

I have to say, I'm confused. Asterisk already supports RADIUS Accounting (for CDRs), and has for quite some time. What it doesn't support is RADIUS Authentication. I'd have to think that even if it did support RADIUS Auth, barring some kind of architectural overhaul, it would have to happen on a channel-driver-by-channel-driver basis. I, for one, would love to see true RADIUS Auth show up in chan_sip at the very least. As I understand it, there are a couple of obstacles inherent in the current architecture that makes this a not entirely simple problem to solve. The first obstacle is that chan_sip currently needs to know each peer's secret, whereas if you are using a RADIUS server, the actual secret/password would never be known to Asterisk. SIP uses HTTP-style digest authentication, which can be tunneled over RADIUS, but chan_sip would itself need to be rewritten to be "RADIUS-aware", so that rather than require/expect the secret for a peer to be statically set in sip.conf and then perform the digest auth exchange itself, it simply sends the request on to the RADIUS server. There was an effort some time ago (https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-5278) to separate peer authentication into a separate module that would have a plug-in architecture which would allow you to "bolt-on" different kinds of authentication back-ends as needed (RADIUS, PAM, LDAP, etc.) for channel drivers that supported it, but development of it was put on-hold back in 2007 and, as far as I can tell, hasn't been picked up by anyone since. Even if res_auth had been finished and was in a working state, the other obstacle that nobody ever really attempted to address with it (as far as I was able to tell, from reading through the bug) was that even though it solved the secret-must-be-known-by-Asterisk problem, you still had to statically define all of your SIP (or IAX2, or whatever) peers in the appropriate conf file. You would merely add an option that told it to check the password/secret via RADIUS, or PAM, or what-have-you, for that peer instead of statically typing the plain-text secret in the conf file for that peer. If you still have to define all of the peers themselves in sip.conf, then doesn't that essentially make the RADIUS "support" useless? What I suspect most people who want to use RADIUS with Asterisk would *expect* from such support is the ability to use RADIUS as the authoritative source for all peer definitions, and not merely as a central password store. That is, they want to be able to utilize all 3 of the three-As of RADIUS AAA: Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting. res_auth would have only taken care of authentication, not authorization (peer attributes, permissions, and settings). You *can* create "dynamic" peers in chan_sip and chan_iax2 by way of Asterisk's Realtime Architecture. And so I could forsee someone cobbling together RADIUS support by resurrecting res_auth (for authentication), and then perhaps creating a Realtime module (for authorization) that consulted a RADIUS server instead of a SQL database or whatever. But you'd have to use both in conjunction with each other for a fully-working system: the Realtime RADIUS module would have to add the appropriate option to each SIP (or IAX2) peer that would in turn cause chan_sip to consult the RADIUS server for that peer's password, instead of cacheing the password/secret locally. And that just seems real kludgey to me (although it might be better than nothing!). -- Nathan Anderson First Step Internet, LLC nath...@fsr.com -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
